Every US presidential TV ad from 1952 to present

This is pretty cool. It’s a nice history of American politics through the lens of campaign ads. I especially like this quote from Adlai Stevenson:

“The idea that you can merchandise candidates for high office like breakfast cereal is the ultimate indignity to the democratic process.”
-Democratic candidate Adlai Stevenson, 1956
