The Great Debate
Here's an interesting resource: The Great Debate & Beyond: The History of Presidential Debates and Beyond. The archive includes select video clips froms televised presidential debates since 1960. Coincidentally, I was talking to a colleague about wanting to see (or show my students) the "You're no JFK" moment from the Bentsen-Quayle VP debate during the 1988 election, so this resource could be very helpful. Also several good clips from Reagan's debates ("Are you better off four years ago?").
Thanks to Blog for Democracy for the good find. Cross posted at Palimpsest.
