Why not, as long as you are sufficiently interested, you could build in previous presidential debates and reference other candidates and winners going back decades.

Think of the runners and riders, the Kennedys, Bush's, the actor, the peanut farmer...the mob etc etc...you could build a huge authority site and get great traffic over the next 14 months and beyond.

You'd never run out of material or points of reference and think of the huge authority sites you could link to, the mind boggles!

Could you sell bunting or badges etc.? Or maybe you could tie up with a company that is producing products related to the election.

On a more flippant note, did you know that I was considering running?

See my post: Should I run for President of the USA? Good luck with your project Joe,

I would back off on this one ... unless you have an idea to monetize it between election seasons. Way too much work for such a small slice of time to monetize.

Why not? I would think it might be pretty competitive, but if done right, it could sure attract a whole lot of attention!
My first thought would be an Amazon link. I would think there would be good paraphernalia on that subject.
Go for it.
Good luck!

Could be difficult to monetize I think. And Google Adwords doesn't bring in a lot of revenue. You need relevant products or programs to promote.
