The White House is an icon for democracy in the United States, a symbol that populates our cultural landscape from movies, comedy, video games, and our political now. The following video is a White House constructed from Online debris of eighteen years 2000-2018. In the early years of pre-YouTube, we build our knowledge base from C-Span and book reviews.
