Steve Forbes Eating A Cheeseburger At McDonalds, 1996 Campaign Trail

Now on Distressed Volatility History Channel. Ever wanted to eat dinner with Steve Forbes at McDonalds? Well now is your chance. Virtually via time warp. Steve Forbes ran for President in 1996 and campaigned through Iowa (Youtube below). You can watch the full 55 minute video including his press conference at MediaBurn.org. Also check out "The 90's" series. It shows footage of the 1989 Tiananmen Square political uprising with students in China discussing the revolt. There was also an educational segment on crack cocaine in Hell's Kitchen, NY, and a bit on the early stages of the internet and email via "Wired In". Interesting retro videos there, btw futures are up.
"Steve Forbes one of the many 1996 Republican Presidential candidates makes a campaign stop at a McDonalds before the Iowa Caucuses. The awkward silence speaks for itself. You can watch the full video and learn more about the filmmakers here" full video is at MediaBurn.org


I wonder what would have happened if we had a flat tax....
