President d. A Day in the Life 4. Candidates gnaw egg salad sandwiches in Midwest kitchens. Candidates hold forth in New England town meetings. Candidates tune up sound byte machines. The fourth estate publishing puff pieces on each newly announced candidate.
Voters are optimistic, involved, interested.
One year before a Presidential election. The grueling months through New Hampshire, Iowa, South Carolina and on to Super Tuesday. Candidates take off the kid gloves and start gnawing at each other. The fourth estate publishes cutting profiles on the remaining candidates. The airwaves fill with sound bites of candidates attacking rivals.
