This thing is absolutely
incredible. It's a reasonably encyclopedic collection of online Presidential political TV advertisements, from 1952 - 2004.

Not only are all the classics here:
- Eisenhower '52 High Prices
- Kennedy '60 Religion
- Johnson '64 Daisy
- Humphrey '68 Laughter
- Reagan '84 Morning in America
- Bush '88 Willie Horton
- Clinton '92 Journey
But there are also tons of obscure ads from every election. I especially recommend these interesting ones:
- Johnson '64 Confessions of a Republican
- Nixon '68 Vietnam
The internet may be amazing for organizing the base, but TV has always moved the masses.
Check out how it's done.
