| Abstract | The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate how the 1972 presidential campaign of George McGovern embodied a rich Neo-Populist rhetorical vision that served as a framework for the candidate's campaign rhetoric. The thesis of the paper is that the Neo-Populist vision of McGovern included three particular fantasies, each of which dressed the McGovern persona as a Populist hero, included a plot line involving Populist motives, and visualized villains in the Populist vein. The paper examines the "Man of Principle" fantasy as an example of McGovern's Neo-Populist identity; the "New Politics" fantasy, which reveals the positions used by McGovern to project a Neo-Populist plot line; and the "Grass Roots" fantasy, which shows how the Neo-Populist rhetoric was used on the political stage.
