Music has prehistoric roots and has throughout history been shown
to have a significant effect on humankind. Under this premise, our
book explains how music has been used in American presidential
campaigns during the country's history. We describe the ways that
song use has evolved over the last two centuries, including how
initial campaign songs took existing music and added new lyrics,
how music became more and more intertwined with the campaigns and
their messages in the nineteenth century, how campaign songs are
now largely taken from existing popular music tunes, and how the
Internet is quickly changing music's relationship to presidential
campaigns. Ours is ultimately a book about the use of music and
American political development, as it describes how political
transformations such as America's changing party structure and
technological advancements like radio have affected music's use in
presidential campaigns.
