Scholars routinely observe that the advent of radio reshaped political speech. But for more than a decade before the first commercial radio broadcast station was inaugurated in Pittsburgh in 1920, citizens had been listening to candidate speeches. This feat was made possible by the phonograph.

I will be uploading the contents of this 100 year old collection of campaign speech audio from 1908 and 1912 in its entirety.

"In Their Own Voices: The U.S. Presidential Elections of 1908 and 1912"

  • yea dont hate if there is nothing bad he says for you to hate on him for

  • @mattador2792 i think that started with roosevelt..... then put away by taft then brought back by this guy.

  • If you listened to a single fucking thing he said you wouldn't be criticizing him. It's amazing that Wilson haters swarm his video and leave hateful comments about things the video has nothing to do with like the Fed. This is about giving workers a fair chance and we'd do well to listen to what he's saying

  • Ughhhhh.... I'm not Wilson's biggest fan.....

  • THANK YOU FOR THE FEDERAL RESERVE ACT YOU PIECE OF SHIT!

  • Thanks to Woodrow Wilson the United States now thinks its the world police.

  • Listening to Ben Bernanke's favorite president is boring, but we should remember people did not have hyperactive disorders like we do today known as ADD. I'm sure the NRA would highly approve of kulkyone's message, but still FDR is a fake Liberal (Progressive) traitor

  • Wilson was a great President. He won WWI and put forth the idea of the League of Nations that became the United Nations. He also started the Federal Reserve wich is part of the problem now but worked for the previous 90 or so years

  • Thank you for posting this! What a joy to actually hear this man's voice- it is beautiful!
