New Hampshire and Jimmy Carter

Lyndon Johnson: When New Hampshire residents cast their votes in the primary this week, we will start to see if that true -- and how much of the turbulence from Iowa gets solidified as the competition heads into the bigger states, according to CNN. As with Iowa, the victor in New Hampshire does not always go on to win the nomination, and the delegate total is meager. He is the author of "Jimmy Carter" and "The Fierce Urgency of Now: Lyndon Johnson, Congress, and the Battle for the Great Society." The opinions expressed in this commentary are his. "The political revolution continues next Tuesday here in New Hampshire," Bernie Sanders told a rally of supporters at the Claremont Opera House. The most important fact is that every winning president in the last 40 years -- with the exception of Bill Clinton -- has won either Iowa or New Hampshire, so the losers from last week feel a particularly acute sense of urgency to be victorious. We'll find out if the Granite State has been oversold as a place that can make or break political candidates. But that Clinton exception and the changing dynamics of presidential campaigns in an era of super PACs and click-bait media suggests that this trend might not hold. (news.financializer.com).
