Random Musings: Selling the Presidency

    I'm with you on this idea, Hadar. How great it would be to just hear what each candidate will do!

    Interesting ideas.... I'm for curbing and limiting ad time rather than eliminating it...
    certainly, we need to address the fact that the candidate and party w/ most money wins...

    I've never thought it made sense for candidates to create ads whose subject is their opponent. And, yes - I would support a law which forbids it.

    What other industry flourishes on indirect ads, the way that politics does? Sure, there's the Mac and PC thing. But generally if a seller spends all his time pointing at the competition, the seller seems like a whiney complainer who doesn't have anything worthwhile to actually sell.

    Well said Shannon. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
