The Living Room Candidate

"The idea that you can merchandise candidates for high office like breakfast cereal is the ultimate indignity to the democratic process."-Democratic candidate Adlai Stevenson, 1956

"Television is no gimmick, and nobody will ever be elected to major office again without presenting themselves well on it."\
-Television producer and Nixon campaign consultant Roger Ailes, 1968

Presidential Campaign Commercials from 1952 - 2004. Pretty cool.
