FDR's "New Deal," Teddy's "Square Deal," JFK's "New Frontier," LBJ's "The Great Society,"  and Woodrow Wilson's "New Freedom."

Why don't Presidential candidates try to bribe the voters with deals anymore?

I guess the election of "CHANGE" signs v. "HONOR" signs is close, but it's not nearly as clever.
