Essentially it’s a huge tussle between the candidates and the press - with the politicians trying to get their message out, even explaining a policy or two, and the press continually trying to make it an exciting horse race. We observe, rather depressingly, that despite the almost 2 year long campaign, the glitz, the rhetoric and its staggering billion dollar cost, Americans receive little information about the substance and policies of the candidates. The important issues like Medicare, social security, the budget surplus or foreign affairs are deemed too complex for the crucial swinging voters.

More honest journalism than today's. Great reporting.

[@baddudecornpop7328]

lol calling a reporter an asshole was a notable slip up in 2000. Way too stodgy and rehearsed back then.

Politics has always been slimy; They were just less in our face about it these days.

What does this have to do with charisma? Watched 12 minutes of it for nothing. Total click bait.

Video cleary says and shows how Bush's charismatic image was able to conceal his idiot image
