  • I wonder why a clip for a commercial for RCA Victor color TV sets was included, since I didn't think the conventions were broadcast in color until 1964 (on NBC; ABc and CBS didn't colorcast a convention until 1968).

    But still, a great look back at what might be the "birth" of the modern era of campaigning.
