2003 CALIFORNIA GOVERNOR RECALL โ€” GRAY DAVIS VS. ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER (kind of)

September 14, 2021September 13, 2023 ~ Kyle Eppler

In the far away time of 2003, Democratic Governor Gray Davis faced a recall attempt. The race to be his replacement quickly devolved into a media circus. Candidates included Davis' own Lieutenant Governor, a pornstar, and, of course, The Terminator.

The Know Nothing Party

That time a conspiracy-filled nationalist organization almost took over America.

2012 – BARACK OBAMA VS MITT ROMNEY

October 20, 2020September 13, 2023 ~ Kyle Eppler

Barack Obama took office as the nation faced several crises. Four years later, were Americans happy with his performance? Or did they side with the obstructionist Republicans?

2008 – BARACK OBAMA VS JOHN MCCAIN

October 13, 2020September 13, 2023 ~ Kyle Eppler

McCain, John-012309-18421- 0004 For the first time since 1928, neither the incumbent president nor the vice president were in the running for their party's nomination. The presidential election was totally up for grabs! Would voters want someone who would continue the policies of President Bush? Or were they hoping for a... change? The Last Four … Continue reading 2008 – BARACK OBAMA VS JOHN MCCAIN

2004 – GEORGE W. BUSH VS JOHN KERRY

October 6, 2020September 13, 2023 ~ Kyle Eppler

George W. Bush took office during a relatively peaceful time in American history, but just a few months into his presidency, he was confronted with the worst act of terror ever committed on American soil. Suddenly, Bush was a wartime president. As the next election neared, was everyone still happy with his leadership?

1996 – BILL CLINTON VS BOB DOLE

September 22, 2020September 13, 2023 ~ Kyle Eppler

Bill Clinton was the first Democratic president since the Reagan Revolution of the 1980s. Could this "New Democrat" fend off the rising tide of conservatism? Or would he follow in the footsteps of Jimmy Carter and become a one-term president?

1992 – GEORGE H.W. BUSH VS BILL CLINTON VS ROSS PEROT

September 15, 2020September 13, 2023 ~ Kyle Eppler

Americans promoted Vice President George H.W. Bush to the presidency in hopes that he would be a suitable stand-in for a third term of Ronald Reagan. The only problem? George H.W. Bush was not Ronald Reagan. His weaknesses on domestic issues opened the door for not one, but TWO, major challengers. But no candidate is perfect...

1988 – GEORGE H.W. BUSH VS MICHAEL DUKAKIS

September 8, 2020September 13, 2023 ~ Kyle Eppler

Like the election of 1960, the outgoing President was extremely popular and the Vice President hoped to capitalize on his large base for his own candidacy. This time, a not-so-charismatic New Englander stood in his way. Was the conservative coalition strong enough to survive this challenge?

1984 – RONALD REAGAN VS WALTER MONDALE

September 1, 2020September 13, 2023 ~ Kyle Eppler

Was America great again? Under President Ronald Reagan, the economy was improving, the Commies were losing, and there were no negative repercussions in sight! Could any Democrat take him down?
