"The question of what gets on a presidential campaign's radar screen, what does not, and why is central to understanding how effectively campaigns function as tools of self-government.  This issue of The Annals examines dimensions of these questions through articles originally commissioned for two conferences at the National Press Club in Washington D.C., held in the spring of 2000.  These sessions were cosponsored by the Annenberg Public Policy Center of the University of Pennsylvania, and the American Academy of Political and Social Science" -- pref. (p.10)
