Hearing Voices from NPR®:
026 Prime Candidates— Portraits of Past Presidential Primaries
Host— Barrett Golding of Hearing Voices
Airdates— 8/27/2008 - 9/3/2008

Politicians who fancy themselves president tromp thru the New Hampshire mill town of “Claremont,” produced by Larry Massett, Art Silverman and Betty Rogers.

The media spin myths out of misquotes in “Democracy and Things Like That” by Sarah Vowell and This American Life (Alex Blumberg and Ira Glass, producers).

The Language Removal Service concocts the world’s first wordless political debate in their “California Recall Project.”

And all this years primary losers re-appear in “Super Tuesday Mixdown” (w/ music by Robert Wyatt and Bruce Springsteen), from Peter Bochan’s series Presidential Shortcuts.
