A politician who has a merely private face like Nixon
is hopeless and helpless. He cannot put his audience
on, he can’t act; he won’t play. If Nixon were to put
on sideburns, or a Stetson, or any sort of
costume—jack boots, jeans, anything—people
would go wild with satisfaction and delight; “he’s
playing with us, at last we’re getting somewhere
near this guy.”
Marshall McLuhan with A.F. Knowles , York University
Instructional Technology Centre, 1971.
