While it is impossible perhaps to mention every­ one who has helped, certain officials and other persons are especially prominent in my memory for their encouragement and assistance during the course of my research. I would like to express my appreciation for the aid I have received from the clerks of the school boards at Columbus, Dayton, Toledo, and Warren, and from the Superintendent of Schools at Athens. In a similar manner I am indebted for the courtesies extended to me by the librarians at the Western Reserve Historical Society, the Ohio State Library, the Ohio Supreme Court Library, Wilberforce University, and Drake University. I am especially grateful to certain librarians for the patience and literally hours of service, even beyond the high level customary in that profession. They are Mr. Russell Dozer of the Ohio State University; Mrs. Alice P. Hook of the Historical and Philosophical Society; and Mrs. Elizabeth R. Martin, Miss Prances Goudy, Mrs, Marion Bates, and Mr. George Kirk of the Ohio Historical Society. ii Ill Much of the time for the research Involved In this study was made possible by a very generous fellowship granted for the year 1956 -1 9 5 7, for which I am Indebted to the Graduate School of the Ohio State University.

  • Collective Memory Project
    The Election of 2004 – Collective Memory Project Interviewee: John McConnell In 2004: Speechwriter for President George W. Bush and Vice President Richard Cheney Interviewer: Michael Nelson Fulmer Professor of Political Science, Rhodes College Fellow, SMU Center for Presidential History November 19, 2014 Disclaimer: This transcription has been prepared according to the strictest practices of the academic and transcription communities and offers our best good-faith effort at reproducing in text our subject's spoken words. In all cases, however, the video of this interview represents the definitive version of the words spoken by interviewees. Q: John McConnell, you were deputy assistant to the president in the George W. Bush administration and senior speech writer to the president and the vice president, Cheney, but over the years you’ve also written for another vice president, Dan Quayle, and for another presidential candidate, Bob Dole. I may be leaving some off that list. But would you compare writing for -- let’s start with President Bush -- writing for President Bush as compared with writing for Dan Quayle in the ’90s, Bob Dole when he ran for president in ’96. MCCONNELL: Writing for a president, of course, is a singular kind of experience. Even if you’ve written for a number of other people, writing for a president is something different, because there is such a carefully-put-together system around the president [00:01:00] and the speech-writing process. There’s the staffing process that most people don’t know about, and that’s where the document, the draft itself, is circulated to the senior people on the White House staff for comment and revisions, edits, what have you, and it’s put through a rigorous fact-checking process.

    BUZZ, BLOGS, AND BEYOND: The Internet and the National Discourse in the Fall of 2004 Michael Cornfield Senior Research Consultant Pew Internet & American Life Project [email protected] Jonathan Carson President and CEO BuzzMetrics [email protected] Alison Kalis Senior Analyst [email protected] Emily Simon Analyst [email protected] 1 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY BuzzMetrics and Dr. Michael Cornfield, a senior research consultant to the Pew Internet & American Life Project, studied the impact of political blogs on the national agenda during the last two months of the 2004 presidential campaign. (By political blogs, we mean only those few dozen blogs which are devoted to filtering public affairs news and which garner traffic in the tens of thousands.) Highlights: • The scandal known as “Rathergate” and other moments in the 2004 campaign enhanced the reputation of political blogs, bloggers, and the blogosphere –but blogger power, the capacity of blog operators to make buzz and influence decision-makers, is circumstantial: dependent on the sorts of information available, and contingent on the behavior of other public voices. • In our research, we charted the popularity of certain topics which attracted buzz (a lot of simultaneous talk) during the fall campaign across four channels of communication: blogs, citizen chat rooms, the mainstream media, and the national campaigns. The blog and citizen chat room channels were subdivided into conservative, general, and liberal groupings. No recurrent pattern indicative of unilateral blogger influence was detected. Political bloggers were buzz followers as much as buzz makers. • We also coded topics of discussion to see whether preferences in one channel or subdivision corresponded with those in the others.

Who's Your Daddy - The Hauenstein Center for Presidential Studies - Grand Valley State ... Page 1 of 6 Who's Your Daddy? American Political Dynasties By Melissa Ware and Brian Flanagan The families of U.S. presidents and vice presidents are steeped in political heritage, and it is not surprising that many of them boast a prestigious lineage. While there has never been an ascendancy in the United States like the Hapsburgs, Romanovs, Bourbons, or Windsors, we have had several political families that could be called dynasties. In fact, many of America's most powerful families have been interrelated. Did you know, for example, that one family that produced two presidents was also related to four other presidents, a vice president, and Winston Churchill? A closer look at these families, however, reveals a major distinction between American political dynasties and European royal dynasties. There is no royalty here; there is no class of citizens rising to power based on the merits of their names alone -- though names do certainly help.

In all cases, however, the video of this interview represents the definitive version of the words spoken by interviewees. December 11, 2013 Q: OK. I doubt there’s ever been anything that’s the equivalent of what came to be called the Shrum Primary in the lead up to an election, as there was in 2004. What’s the Shrum Primary, and why would there be such a thing? SHRUM: Well, it was a journalistic artifact. It was because I had previously worked for John Kerry, I had previous worked for John Edwards, I had previously worked for Joe Lieberman. And so, there was this whole sense -- the press created it. You know, I found it annoying, actually. Q: Obviously there’s a back story to this, which is your long involvement in multiple Democratic campaigns for president, as well as senator, governor, and so on. SHRUM: Yeah, well, I’d done the John Edwards campaign in 1998, when he came out of nowhere to get elected to the Senate in North Carolina. Thought he was immensely [00:01:00] talented. I had been a friend of John Kerry’s for almost 40 years, and in 1996, when he faced a really tough race against [Bill] Weld, I’d been brought into that race in the beginning of September.
