Stephen Robinett

First published May 1976
Type Short Fiction
Length Novelette

A PR person is more or less forced to run a political campaign. (If he wouldn't run it with “ordinary” advertising techniques, the ad agency would use a new invention: a device which causes a powerful compulsion to do something). He doesn't completely agree with candidate's agenda, but does his best anyway. But there are some personal complications, though.
