Vague statements amount to puffery
Article Abstract:
Most of the political advertising campaigns of the Republican presidential candidates are attractive but contain few substantial information. Sen. Bob Dole's advertisement lacks concrete approaches to achieving his promise of prosperity. Pat Buchanan's adversarial rhetoric may rally ultra conservatives but turns away centrists. Lamar Alexander's advertisements are filled with gimmicks but lack substance. Steve Forbes has flooded voters with numerous advertisements which are mostly too focused on the income tax issue.
