Out of 2,000 bids, 36 swaps were accepted - from a motorcycle made of 9,000 popsicle sticks to a share of Enron stock to an epic keg party.

As socio-political tension and a do-nothing Congress kept progress at a standstill, we created "Lean Forward" to help the network find its voice and define its mission: to advance the issues that move our country ahead. Instead of publishing the Lean Forward manifesto in a book, we projected it on buildings, water towers, trains, bridges and construction sites in major cities including NYC, Seattle, Denver, Washington DC, Chicago, and Atlanta (on CNN’s headquarters, in fact). The following video captures the highlights of the project. <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/3/100256/1276033/02_DARE_TO_DREAM_POSTER-web_905.jpg" width="742" height="447" width_o="742" height_o="447" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/3/100256/1276033/02_DARE_TO_DREAM_POSTER-web_o.jpg" data-mid="6187473" border="0" align="left"/> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/3/100256/1276033/04_station-dom-f-mockup-web_905.jpg" width="742" height="447" width_o="742" height_o="447" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/3/100256/1276033/04_station-dom-f-mockup-web_o.jpg" data-mid="6187470" border="0" align="left"/> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/3/100256/1276033/01_POLITICO_SPREAD-web_905.jpg" width="742" height="447" width_o="742" height_o="447" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/3/100256/1276033/01_POLITICO_SPREAD-web_o.jpg" data-mid="6187209" border="0" align="left"/> For Lean Forward to become more than a network tagline, we needed msnbc personalities to adopt it as their own. To bring their unique perspectives to life, we created over 30 pieces of topical content in collaboration with director (and political contributor) Spike Lee. Rachel Maddow, Lawrence O'Donnell, Chris Matthews and Ed Schultz offered their unscripted perspectives on the issues of the day. But it was the inimitable Reverend Al Sharpton's seemingly innocent childhood story about blueberry pie who ultimately fired a political harpoon to the GOP and captured the attention of news junkies, the DC Beltway, and pop culture alike. "Blueberry Pie" even inspired a sketch on Saturday Night Live and an oil on canvas. <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/3/100256/1276033/A9DWPrVCEAAL3Jw.jpg-large.jpeg" width="600" height="480" width_o="600" height_o="480" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/3/100256/1276033/A9DWPrVCEAAL3Jw.jpg-large_o.jpeg" data-mid="29915009" border="0" align="left"/> Credits Creative Director: Larry Olson Art Direction/Design: Dustin Black, T.
