Is this the most negative campaign in history?

    That President was Andrew Jackson BTW. He fired his entire cabinet because their wives wouldn't interact with his wife. His mother was also called a prostitute that had sex with a black man and that's how President Jackson was conceived. Today's politics is a joke.

    Erin, you're going to get an overwhelming yes from people because they don't know Presidential history. We've had claims of a President's wife being a whore and that President fired his whole staff because they wouldn't interact with his wife. The attacks today aren't personal compared to campaigns in the 1800s. Those campaigns were heavyweight fights compared to today's silly campaigns. I think you should phrase the question as a "In your lifetime" due to people's lack of knowledge of US History and even less knowledge of US Presidential history.

    Erin , with hours and hours of spewed demonizing from talk radio and alike, civility and ideas are lost to sensationalism and hatered. The political process is a pissing contest fueled by disinformation and sound bites. With television networks so slanted to one party or another, people of little mind become minnions of the media. To answer your question. When loud and unruley becomes status quo, hateful and rediculous becomes the new norm. Really appreciate your show ! Thank you ! C
