Explanation on label, "An examination of a recurrent , tumultuous and uniquely American folk-festival wherein (after certain rites and ceremonies are duly accomplished) a citizen is selected to be the President of the United States. Carefully compiled and edited from a study of 130 years of useful cliches, good and bad oratory, tumult and shouting, and for the astute observer, a sometime splendor."
