Is This Any Way to Pick a President? Campaign Advertising in America

Republican political consultant and strategist Frank Luntz led a panel discussion on campaign advertising with Jim Margolis, Senior Advisor for Obama for America, and Larry McCarthy, Media Advisor for Restore our Future. The speakers used video clips of some of the most memorable advertisements from the 2012 election to explore whether the ads were fair and how advertising affects the American political system. Throughout the event, Luntz engaged the audience with live polls.
