US 1996.
I remember the Clinton-Dole race very well. I was 9, and I rooted for Dole because most of my favorite presidents (including Lincoln) were Republican and I didn't understand the parties' platforms very well.
In the same year, here in South Dakota, I remember then-Representative Tim Johnson's attack ads against against Senator Larry Pressler. One ad claimed that Pressler "threw mud" and I didn't quite understand that it wasn't meant literally.
