To Talmadge, however, a promise to the voters was sacred, so he took several steps to carry through.
Harrison ran a "log cabin" campaign as a war hero and a man of the people as Andrew Jackson had done when he won the presidency. Martin Van Buren was portrayed as a wealthy snob who was wasting the country's money.
The campaign of the summer of 1778, particularly in the context of the American Revolutionary War, saw significant military actions, including the Battle of Monmouth. This battle, fought in June, was notable for the large-scale engagement between British and Continental Army forces, ultimately resulting in a tactical stalemate. It was also marked by the introduction of General George Washington’s improved tactics and the involvement of the newly trained Continental troops. The summer campaign underscored the growing resilience of the American forces despite the challenges they faced.
Alfred E. Smith endured a smear campaign during the 1928 presidential election primarily due to his Catholic faith, which was a source of prejudice in a predominantly Protestant America. Opponents spread false rumors that he would take orders from the Pope, undermining his candidacy. Additionally, his progressive policies and support for urban issues alienated conservative voters, further fueling the smear tactics against him. This campaign reflected broader societal tensions regarding religion, ethnicity, and political ideology at the time.

Paul von Lettow-Vorbeck was a German general during World War I, best known for his command of German colonial forces in East Africa. He led a highly effective guerrilla campaign against British and Allied troops, utilizing the region's terrain and local resources to his advantage. His tactics and ability to maintain a prolonged resistance made him a notable figure in military history, and he became a national hero in Germany after the war. Lettow-Vorbeck's campaign lasted until the end of the war in 1918, despite Germany's defeat in Europe.

The first step in conducting a personality campaign is to clearly define the objectives and goals of the campaign. This includes identifying the target audience, determining the key messages to communicate, and establishing the desired outcomes. This foundational step will guide the development of the campaign strategy and tactics.
Mudslinging , slogans, buttons, and campaign rallies sometimes offering food and whiskey were some of the tactics used to win the election.
I assume you can't beat the campaign, so got to the arena. That should get you some experience.
A potential drawback of some campaign tactics is that they can alienate certain audience segments if the messaging is perceived as too aggressive or polarizing. Additionally, tactics that rely heavily on social media may miss reaching demographics that are less active online. Furthermore, campaigns focused solely on short-term gains can neglect long-term brand loyalty and trust, ultimately undermining sustainability.
Tactics are the small decisions that concern a battle. Strategy is the larger plan affecting a whole war or campaign. Bad tactics for the south were frontal attacks versus entrenched troops. I feel it is their strategies that failed them (outdated Napoleonic warfare in a modern age).
