WOULDN'T BE PRUDENT AT THIS JUNCTURE: Ready for a massive timewaster? The American Museum of the Moving Image has made available online pretty much every presidential general election television ad from 1952 to the present, organized by year, candidate or theme.
Yes, the Daisy ad, Reagan's ad for Goldwater and the Dukakis prison furlough ad are there, but it's the stuff you haven't heard of that's most striking. There's some weird stuff out there -- including Pearl Bailey pimping Gerald Ford and a truly bizarre ad in which Jacqueline Kennedy promotes her husband . . . in Spanish? Just a tremendous resource.
I'm Adam Bonin, and I authorize this blog post.
