We join a 1972 campaign in wide open progress as George McGovern tries to make his case to the American people at a time when the economy is doing well and a peace looks like it could be with in grasp of President Nixon. It was a tough row to hoe.

Listen in as President Nixon continues to work toward a negotiated peace in Vietnam, with many frustrations along the way.  Plus you will hear Vice President Spiro Agnew on the campaign trail with a style uniquely his own.

Here we listen to ads, the speeches, and  the news reports  from along the 1972 campaign trail. We also get to hear the President as he works with Henry Kissinger trying to find a way to get the war over with.
