One Bright Shining Moment from $ 13.64 The little known and much maligned 1972 campaign of South Dakota Senator George McGovern was, as this documentary by Stephen Vittoria (BLACK AND WHITE, HOLLYWOOD BOULEVARD) points out, a high point in American politics. Moreover, its ultimate failure was indicative of the problems in the electoral process as a whole, highlighting the impossibility of success for an honest, idealistic candidate. The film is partly a biography of a truly remarkable politician, and partly a political essay, full of analysis and historical information. Unabashedly partisan, Vittoria provides an alternative history of the events leading up to the election in which Nixon was running for his second term. The civil rights movement, the assassinations of Martin Luther King and Bobby Kennedy, the student killings at Kent State, and the police riots at the 1968 Democratic convention in Chicago, are all addressed with extensive archive footage and commentary by an assortment of luminaries.

George McGovern - A Lifetime of Public Service (Biography)
USD 5.55 George McGovern - A Lifetime of Public Service is the biography of George McGovern, a former United States Representative, Senator, and Democratic presidential nominee. McGovern lost the 1972 presidential election in a landslide to incumbent Richard Nixon. Although he voted in favor of the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, McGovern later became a strong critic of defense spending, and was an early and vocal opponent of U.S. military involvement in Vietnam, often criticizing the policies of fellow Democrat, President Lyndon B. Johnson. George McGovern helped institute major changes in Democratic party rules-including the requirement that delegates to the party's nominating convention be diverse-which continues to this day. George McGovern - A Lifetime of Public Service is highly recommended for those interested in learning more about this respected American politician.

What It Means To Be A Democrat By George Mcgovern
USD 20.91 A call to arms by the former presidential candidate that combines personal anecdotes and cultural critiques to remind liberals of their ideological compass and restore confidence. George McGovern has been a leading figure of the Democratic Party for more than fifty years. From this true liberal comes a thoughtful examination of what being a Democrat really means. McGovern admonishes current Democratic politicians for losing sight of their ideals as they subscribe to an increasingly centrist policy agenda. Applying his wide- ranging knowledge and expertise on issues ranging from military spending to same-sex marriage to educational reform, he stresses the importance of creating policies we can be proud of. Finally, with 2012 looming, McGovern's What It Means to Be a Democrat offers a vision of the party's future in which ideological coherence and courage rule.

The Liberals' Moment: The McGovern Insurgency and the Identity Crisis of the Democratic Party
USD 17.95 When George McGovern lost the 1972 presidential election, Richard Nixon's landslide victory buried more than an insurgent campaign. In resurrecting the largely forgotten story of McGovern's remarkable presidential bid, Bruce Miroff reveals how his crushing defeat produced an identity crisis for liberals torn between their convictions and the political calculations required to win elections--a dilemma for Democrats that has never gone away. Miroff follows the campaign from its surprising rise to its catastrophic fall to remind us how a dark-horse candidate captured the nomination--and then disastrously chose a running mate with a hidden past. Drawing on interviews with dozens of participants--including McGovern himself--who share a wealth of anecdotes and insights, Miroff traces the insurgency to the political struggles of the sixties, explores McGovern's ideology, and assesses the Republican attack politics that linked McGovern to "acid, amnesty, and abortion." Miroff shows how the transformative election of 1972 signaled a major shift in the Democratic base--from urban blue-collar New Dealers to suburban, issue-oriented activists (feminists and gay rights advocates among them)--as the party shed its Cold War past and embraced an antiwar orientation. He also illuminates how the McGovern campaign mastered the new game of presidential primaries and explores the formative experiences of a generation of talented young political actors, including campaign manager Gary Hart, political newcomer Bill Clinton, and future party strategists Bob Shrum and John Podesta. In excavating the 1972 landslide, he follows the subsequent careers of the young McGovernites and describes the loss's effects on later Democratic presidential campaigns. By tracing the transformation of American liberalism and sixties idealism from their political crash in 1972 to the muddled centrism of the twenty-first century, The Liberals' Moment shows what the McGovern insurgency has to teach us today--and identifies what Democrats must do in order to reassume the mantle of progressive change.
