Wartime Campaigning

Presidential campaigns take on a different tone during wartime. Both the sitting President and the challenger need to carefully construct their campaign strategy. We'll look at how the Bush/Kerry battle is playing out and also look to the past to see what can be learned. Mike's guests are Marc Genest, Visiting Professor in the Strategy and Policy Dept at the Naval War College in Rhode Island and Associate Professor of Political Science at the University of Rhode Island, and Dean Spiliotes, Visiting Scholar at the Institute of Politics at St. Anselm College.
