Missed Opportunity: Gore, Incumbency, and Television in Election 2000

Editorial Reviews
Review
“This is both a well-written analysis of the critical institutional and electoral role played by vice presidents and an interesting enlargement on the concept of candidate-centered presidential elections. Highly recommended at all levels.”–Choice

Book Description
The 2000 presidential election marked the fourth time since 1960 when a president retired and his party nominated his leading surrogate, the vice president, as potential successor. Dover explains why television-age vice presidents win nominations and shows what they have to do to win the general election. He applies that model to the leading events of the 2000 campaign and shows why Gore lost.
