Скачать или смотреть William McKinley Campaign Speech (1896) | Earliest U.S. Presidential Recording | Public Domain Audio

🎙️ Hear the voice of history in one of the earliest surviving audio recordings of a U.S. presidential campaign. This rare 1896 clip features Republican candidate William McKinley, whose successful campaign against William Jennings Bryan helped usher in a new era of American industrial and imperial power.

Delivered during a transformative election at the close of the Gilded Age, McKinley's campaign emphasized protective tariffs, economic stability, and the gold standard. His presidency would later see victory in the Spanish–American War and the annexation of territories overseas, setting the stage for the American Century.
