Bill Brandel spreads out just a small portion of his political memorabilia collection in the kitchen of his Jefferson home. He has nearly 4,000 campaign buttons, pins and ribbons in his stash, which dates from 1828 to 1996.

I remember, as a child, who knew nothing of politics, singing on the playground, because it was catchy: “Johnson, Johnson he’s our man; throw Goldwater in the garbage can”. Other than Kennedy’s death, this is my earliest political memory.
