The stage on which Obama delivered his acceptance speech at the 2008 Democratic National Convertion looks like a Greek temple or Roman forum.
It is a very neo-classical political theatre for his oratory at Invesco Field. Some say that it also refers to the neoclassical colonnade in Chicago's Soldier Field part of an athletic stadium designed in 1919 by Holabird & Roche, which commemorated World War I soldiers.
