Obama fonts (that aren't Gotham or Perpetua or Trajan, I swear)

Doing a little civic participation through graphic design and would like to find two fonts:

(1) the classy script from which swashes have been taken to make the super-swash

(2) the “AMERICAN” serif; through the pixelation it looks like one of the Fleischmann revivals, but who knows (you know!)

Thanks in advance, everyone

AMERICAN looks like Augustea. At least is may be close enough for your purposes.

Thanks, Mike

Any ideas on typefaces that I might be able to mine for little swashes, akin to the Obama ones?

Doesn’t Bickham come with a ton of swashes?
