Ray Blanton: Encyclopedia II - Lamar Alexander - Return to Senate

Vowing to never again return to elective office, he was persuaded by the White House to run for the open seat of retiring Senator Fred Thompson in 2002. Seen as a moderate, his candidacy was vigorously opposed by conservatives who supported Congressman Ed Bryant, who had become one of the House managers during the 1998 impeachment of President Bill Clinton. Alexander was well-funded and was armed by more prominent endorsements and eked out a closer-than-expected win over Bryant in the primary. Democrats had high hopes of recovering the seat ...

Ray Blanton: Encyclopedia II - Lamar Alexander - Presidential campaigns

He ran for the Republican Presidential nomination in 1996. He tried to project a “common man” image by frequently wearing plaid flannel shirts. His campaign signs were a simple "Lamar!" on a red background. His most visible campaign issue was to revert Congress back to an earlier vision of a group of citizen-legislators, who would only be in session half a year. Thus his slogan was "Cut their pay and send them home!" Alexander's campaign achieved some momentum in the early caucus and primary states, with upper-echelon finishes in a crowd ...

Ray Blanton: Encyclopedia II - Political scandals of the United States - Contemporaneous notoriety versus historical research

A distinction can be drawn, between scandals that were widely publicized close to the time, and information about improprieties that did not surface until some time later. For example, rumors that either President John F. Kennedy or his brother Robert F. Kennedy had a sexual affair with Hollywood actress Marilyn Monroe did not become widespread until after all three were dead. Another example of delayed publicity is Thomas Jefferson's alleged relationship with Sally Hemings, which remained relatively unknown for nearly two centuries before i ...

Ray Blanton: Encyclopedia II - Political scandals of the United States - Salacious Gossip versus Crisis of Legitimacy

News coverage of some of the more sensationalized political scandals has tended to focus on salacious details, resembling gossipy tabloid coverate of Hollywood celebrity scandals. On the other hand, some political scandals have been treated more soberly as crises implicating the legitimacy of government. In either case, it is widely believed that political scandals are capable of profoundly under ...
