This guy has the best and most in depth coverages ive ever seen. I love watching these as i lay down at night as it feels like im there in that year. No one else covers historical moments in depth like this as he was there.
Been binging through this channel and loving it. Especially these in depth election videos hope the level of detail is unmatched and unbiased hope they'll be more
This was the year I was born. In fact, the day I was born the Vice Presidential Debate took place. It’s nice to see what American politics was like the year I was born!
I always wonder if the election would’ve been more exciting had Perot been included in the Presidential debates again. Had Perot got the same media coverage he did in 92 I reckon this election would’ve been much more exciting and a lot of his 92 voters wouldn’t have gone back to Clinton and Dole.
He never polled as high in ‘96 as he did in ‘92. Clinton had delivered peace and prosperity a much better economic situation, any incumbent would be tough to beat in that situation.
It's wild how drastically different the Democratic party is today from Clinton's first term. His views from 94-96 would be considered far right today 😮
I know i don’t get why people in the Democratic Party speak well of Clinton, he was a moderate verging on conservative with his policies. He is out of place in this Democratic Party that has became more left wing.
@@WestonMeyer-n6x This is an ignorant statement. Nothing about Clinton's policies remotely resembles Trump's, who is only for "tariffs" and tax cuts for the rich and repealing Obamacare, beyond which he only has a "concept of a plan." Clinton was a Rhodes scholar. Trump was described by his professor as the dumbest student he ever had.
@Cbsurprisekamikaze I didn't know he was that conservative I was younger back then iii amend my comment but you have to agree he was a bad candidate against Clinton
Any candidate would have been a terrible choice to challenge Clinton at that point. Challenging him at that time would have been like challenging Superman to a superhero contest right after he reversed the earthquake in part one.
They should have been more competitive than they were I mean Dole never inspired anyone to want him as president. Plus Clinton was vulnerable against Powell who would due to the times had no chance but would have taken it to Clinton and made it close
@@JimHeathChannel Compared to what they were used to with only nightly national news CNN slanted more left but CNN in the 90s is socially more right wing than Fox News is today. That is how much more left the country has gone.
@burtoncapps5477 During Reagan’s era the GOP failed to nurture another one like him to take over the reins of the party. These RINO snakes took over under Bush and ran the party to the ground especially with Dubya, Gingrich was not capable enough to stem that rot. In a strange way Trump kicked the RINO wing of the party underbelly and put it out of its electoral misery by winning. The GOP needs to be rebuilt in Reagan’s mold. I think Ramaswamy is that candidate who can rebuild the party although Trump started it.

As always, thanks for your support. Always makes me want to make new content!
@@JimHeathChannel have you thought about doing a 2000 2004 2008 2016 and 2020 co recap
@@GoBlue_yanks42 There is a 2008 on the channel, and Part One of 2016. Part Two coming soon!
Another brilliant video. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
My God, this channel is GREAT! These vids are national treasures.
Extremely well made, enjoyed the watch. I love this type of stuff. Thank you for making this sort of content, sincerely. I wish there was more of it!!
Thank you very much!

That’s very kind thank you.
There needs to be 00 one, itd be great to see a actual documentary on 2000 that involves the actual election not just the recount part
As a brit that's something I know little about would love to see it seems every video just concentrates understandably on florida
Ah the 90s. when America (as Charles Krauthammer put it) "took a vacation from history."
Wasn't it "holiday from history"? Anyway, point taken😏
I think we could use another vacation
You should make more of these!
I was actually hoping for more stuff on 1996, very convenient timing!
This was the year I was born. In fact, the day I was born the Vice Presidential Debate took place. It’s nice to see what American politics was like the year I was born!
Darn, Pat Buchanan was ridiculously ahead of his time

They are literally Trump’s views

RIP Bob Dole.
Lol, Bob Dole would be the perfect person to elect if you want to bore people to death...
Dole was a terrible candidate to challenge Clinton he was a better pineapple than choice for president no pun intended 😉
How was he a Rhino? As far as I’m aware of he was pretty conservative.

@bobblueford you're right I really don't know of anyone else who could have challenged him at the time
Powell should have run
15:10
😂 Seriously dude??? 🤣🤣🤣
The 1996 GOP candidates were very uninspiring to say the least. Bob Dole was a great man but not a great national candidate.
Bob Dole's not afraid to eat a bug!
clinton was great
the GOP always takes defeat from the grips of victory
They should have been more competitive than they were I mean Dole never inspired anyone to want him as president. Plus Clinton was vulnerable against Powell who would due to the times had no chance but would have taken it to Clinton and made it close
1:31:02 I take it Macarena was copyrighted?
@@ryanfriedman4329 I thought that too
David work for a polling firm in 1994 and respondants said we are voting Republicans

Alan Bleviss -
"He loved the American dream...with a vengeance".
Powell would have at least put up a fight.
Powell's pro-choice view on abortion would have created chaos at the GOP convention.
Crazy how they picked Dole
1:30:12 How the hell do business leaders help you raise a kid? WTF
The good ol days when CNN actually had journalists who asked questions and reported news and not the lefts Propaganda
Republicans in 1996 called CNN the ‘Clinton News Network’ and used the very same criticism you do nearly 30 years later.
@@JimHeathChannel
Compared to what they were used to with only nightly national news CNN slanted more left but CNN in the 90s is socially more right wing than Fox News is today.
That is how much more left the country has gone.
Terrible Republican candidates
Colin Powell had the best chance to win but the times were against him
Than can be said about any election.
Pat Buchanan is the only politician worth voting for on the GOP
Oh, today's are far worse.
Pat Buchanan sounds just like former president Trump
Yet in 1999, Trump called Buchanan a Nazi.
@@JimHeathChannel then he sounded like Buchanan when he ran in 2016
@@Scottj2011 It's amazing how that happened. (see part one of my documentary on election '16).
Trump is more like 90s Clinton.
Buchanan is a paleo conservative
Social conservatives A.K.A. RINO's we should have seen the truth at the time.
