The veeps audition—campaign 2020: Disciplining Kamala Harris
This essay spotlights some of the ways that the 2020 presidential campaign reified the sexism and racism baked into American politics. To demonstrate her suitability as Joe Biden’s running mate, vice presidential candidate Kamala Harris had to downplay her skill as a prosecutor with political intellect and present herself more as a doting and submissive partner picked out of a group of women vying for Biden’s attention. Such expressions of loyalt…
Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign memoirs: A study in contrasting identities
This essay examines the rhetorical identities of Hillary Clinton’s two political memoirs—Living History and Hard Choices. The first spanned her childhood through her years as first lady. The second recounted her tenure as secretary of state. Though both memoirs were written with a past orientation, they also sought to keep alive a future run for the presidency. Situating the two Clinton memoirs in the history of biography, we employ corpus rhetor…

This response to Kathleen Hall Jamieson's “The Discipline's Debate Contributions” brings forth, via a sampling of existing literature, those research trajectories about political debates ignored or minimized by Professor Jamieson as those trajectories hold true to the values and traditions of the Communication discipline and as they operate alongside the literature she surveys about debate effects. In particular, we suggest that political debates…

Lincoln Reminiscences and Nineteenth-Century Portraiture: The Private Virtues of Presidential Character
This essay examines reminiscences of Abraham Lincoln that were published in the aftermath of his death by those who had interacted with Lincoln personally. An understudied genre y Lincoln reminiscences offered judgments of Lincolns character through a portraiture style designed to make salient private as well as public dimensions of his character. We historicize the rhetoric of portraiture and trace the rise of reminiscence out of biography as a …
Meta-Imaging, The War Room, and the Hyperreality of U.S. Politics
In this essay we explore a new form of political communication, the meta-image, or the communicative act whereby political campaigns and their chroniclers publicly display and foreground the art and practice of political image construction. We examine a compelling example of meta-imaging—the 1993 film, The War Room. We identify how the film functions as a reflection of the hyperreality of U.S. politics. We then argue that The War Room, through th…
