XX [From the dust jacket] The Duping of the American Voter is a no-holds-barred exposé of the deceptive ways in which presidential incumbents and aspirants, from Eisenhower, John F. Kennedy, and Johnson to Nixon, Ford, and Carter, have used unregulated political television advertising to conceal their true intentions and backgrounds from an unsuspecting public. If, as Robert Spero shows, paid political announcements, now the chief presidential campaign weapon, ere subjected to the tough regulatory tests a simple soap commercial must pass, few would have been aired to the American viewer/voter, and the history of the past 28 years might well have been different: Vietnam, Watergate, the Persian Gulf, for example. Spero proves this by analyzing dozens of presidential campaign commercials according to strict truth-in-advertising standards imposed on product commercials. Focusing on the gap between what the public is led to believe and what is actually taking place, the author takes a fresh look at how presidents and presidential candidates have used television to keep or gain power at the expense of the voter and the nation, a dangerous abuse of our democratic system that will continue unchecked until the public demands necessary reforms. Including in-depth research and interviews with network officials, former FCC chairmen, political scientists, and political media specialists who orchestrate presidential campaigns, The Duping of the American Voter is eye-opening, engrossing, and lively, a powerful critique of how we have been sold our presidents in the television age, what to expect as we approach the critical 1980 elections, and how we, as voters, can break the back of the political television commercial and substitute instead a fair, practical, and inexpensive platform from which to judge the candidates who would lead us and our children. XX Robert Spero, a one-time government offlcial (State Department; President Kennedy's National Service Corps Study Group), is currently vice-president of a leading international advertising agency. He was born and raised in the Midwest and attended the University of Wisconsin and Northwestern University.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. FDR's Four Freedoms-Freedom of Speech, Freedom to Worship, Freedom from Want, and Freedom from Fear-were presented to the American people in his 1941 State of the Union address, and they became the inspiration for a second bill of rights, extending the New Deal and guaranteeing work, housing, medical care, and education. Although the bill never was adopted in a legal sense in this country, its principles pervaded the political landscape for an entire generation, including the War on Poverty and the Great Society reforms of the 1960s. Furthermore, the ideas expressed in the Four Freedoms speech inspired the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. But since the late 1970s and early 1980s, these freedoms have been under assault, from administrations of both parties, economic pressures, and finally, the alleged requirements of national security. After 9/11, this process accelerated even more rapidly.The authors address the hard questions of individual freedom versus national security that are on the minds of Americans of all political stripes. They bring together the pivotal events, leaders, policies, and fateful decisions-often pathbreaking, more often ending in folly-that have subverted our constitutional government from its founding."You reach the inescapable conclusion," the authors write, "that the United States is a warrior nation, has been addicted to war from the start, and is able to sustain its warfare habit only by mugging American taxpayers, and believing in its mission as God's chosen." With a foreword by Barbara Ehrenreich, a journalist, activist, and the author of Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America. FDRs Four FreedomsFreedom of Speech, Freedom to Worship, Freedom from Want, and Freedom from Fearwere presented to the American people in his 1941 State of the Union address, and they became the inspiration for a second bill of rights, extending the New Deal and guaranteeing work, housing, medical care, and education.
