They Were Simpler Times

I don't know where YouTuber Travis Church found it, but this 1984 Lyndon LaRouche ad is a thing of beauty.

The Democrats aren't doing that well, all things considered. They have a nice poll lead but no successes to speak of in Congress. But they're not being bothered by a LaRouche campaign, showing up and demanding to get into debates, winning actual delegates and scrapping with the party to get them. The GOP's a bit more of a circus now as evidenced by the entrance into the '08 race of Alan Keyes.
