All of the recent noise from the Republican candidates brought to mind one 
of the first images that I made with my first Leica.  Cleaned up with Neat 
Image, this shows Ike campaigning from the back of his campaign train, at a 
stop in Dayton, Ohio in 1952.  Before Interstates and private jets, this was 
how it was done.
