Packaging Politics looks at how the rise of consumer culture over the past 60 years has influenced presidential campaigning and political culture more broadly. Drawing on interviews with political consultants, political reporters, marketing experts and communications scholars, Packaging Politics explores the formal and informal ways that commercial marketing methods – specifically emotional and open source branding and micro and behavioral targeting – have migrated to the

In his book The Good Citizen, Michael Schudson claims that mere factual recall does not necessarily indicate that one is “informed”, but rather an “informed citizen” is one who actively reads the “information environment”.

Each of their presentations was open to the public, and the response was tremendous. Thus was born the Salem State Series. In the 39 years since, ever-larger audiences have enjoyed the opportunity to hear presidents, press secretaries and prime ministers; activists, actors and authors; legendary figures from the world of sports, politics and science; and authors, columnists and journalists. The Salem State Series stands now as one of the premier continuously running college lecture series in the country, attracting thousands of patrons annually. We plan once again to present notable speakers on subjects designed to inform, engage and encourage discussion within the community. We hope to count you among our supporters. The Salem State Series is produced under the auspices of the Salem State Foundation. As a self-supporting community enrichment program, the Series assists the university in fulfilling its public education mission. We are grateful to the thousands of individuals and businesses that have enabled the Series to grow and prosper through their ongoing financial support. 2020 2019 2018 Paul Farmer Rebecca Eaton Sam Kennedy Paul Farmer 2017 2016 2015 John Legend Richard DesLauriers Ed Davis Tom Brady 2013 2012 Tony Kushner Cory Booker Bobby Valentine Peter Gammons 2011 2010 Newt Gingrich John Irving Deepak Chopra Ted Kennedy Jr. 2009 2008 Jay Leno Bob and Lee Woodruff Bill Belichick George F.

  • Back to Macomb Reagan Democrats and Barack Obama by Stanley B
    Back to Macomb Reagan Democrats and Barack Obama By Stanley B. Greenberg James Carville Andrew Baumann Karl Agne Jesse Contario Reagan Democrats and Barack Obama Back to Macomb Macomb County is indeed home to the Reagan Democrats whose defection helped crash the national Democratic Party after the 1960s and whose partial return since Bill Clinton has made the county a battleground and enabled Democrats to carry Michigan in the last four elections. This year, Macomb – 90 percent white, half Catholic, 40 percent union families, one third over 60 and with Barack Obama underperforming among its Democrats – is certain to play a key role in the presidential drama. The media will follow the presidential candidates who will no doubt troop down to Macomb County Community College in Warren, Michigan to show why they deserve the support of the Reagan Democrats. In 1960, Macomb was the most Democratic suburban county in the country as John F. Kennedy won handily there, garnering 63 percent of the vote. Four years later, Lyndon Johnson increased the Democratic vote share even further, winning 75 percent of Macomb voters. But over the next 20 years, these voters turned on the Democrats, culminating with Ronald Reagan taking 66 percent of the vote in 1984. In the five presidential cycles to follow Reagan, the county has turned into a presidential battleground. Clinton, in 1996 against Dole, was the first Democrat since 1968 to carry it, though only with 50 percent of the vote. Since then, the two presidential contests have been fought to a draw, with Al Gore taking it by 2 points and John Kerry losing it by 1.1 Today, Barack Obama trails John McCain in Macomb by 7 points (46 to 39 percent), with 8 percent for Ralph Nader and 2 percent for Bob Barr.

Introduction: Romney’s Dilemma Mitt Romney woke up on the morning of September 11, 2012, with big hopes for this day – that he’d stop the slow slide of his campaign for the presidency. The political conventions were in his rear-view mirror, and the Republican nominee for the White House was trailing President Obama in most major polls. In an ABC News/Washington Post poll released at the start of the week, the former Massachusetts governor’s previous 1-point lead had flipped to a 6-point deficit.1 “Mr. Obama almost certainly had the more successful convention than Mr. Romney,” wrote Nate Silver, the polling guru and then-New York Times blogger.2 While the incumbent’s gathering in Charlotte was marked by party unity and rousing testimonials from Obama’s wife, Michelle, and former President Bill Clinton, Romney’s confab in Tampa had fallen flat.

  • This Is a Rush Transcript from “On the Record ,” March 6, 2009
    This is a rush transcript from “On the Record ,” March 6, 2009. This copy may not be in its final form and may be updated. GRETA VAN SUSTEREN, FOX NEWS HOST: The brother of the alleged architect of the anti-Rush campaign is speaking out. To take you back, after talk show host Rush Limbaugh spoke at CPAC, GOP head Michael Steele called Rush an “entertainer,” and added that Rush’s remarks are “incendiary and ugly.” Rush quickly swung back, and Michael Steele quickly apologized. Then President Obama’s former campaign manager wrote an op-ed called “Minority leader Limbaugh.” And the DCCC launched a Web site called I’msorryRush.com, mocking Republicans who have insulted Rush and then immediately rushed to apologize to him. “Politico” says it is all part of a larger effort by big name Democrats like Paul Begala, James Carville, and even White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel to paint Rush Limbaugh as the face of the GOP. Now, Paul Begala’s brother Chris Begala, who is a media and political consultant and is a partner of Begala and McGrath is taking a stand. It’s nice to see you again, Chris. And, Chris, just to get things straight, are you the good Begala, or the bad Begala. CHRIS BEGALA, POLITICAL CONSULTANT: Well, you know, I am honored to be able to work with President Bush 41 and his office here in Houston. And many years ago he dubbed me “the good Begala.” So I wear that moniker proudly. VAN SUSTEREN: All right. I knew that.
