Speech

Contains campaign speeches (over 2000), press releases and statements of all US presidential candidates from years 2008, 2012 and 2016. It also has speech data for Nixon and Kennedy (1960). The columns contain Type, Name, Date, Title, Speech. The delimiter used to separate the columns is "~". Geographies can be extracted from the Title column (Last word is a place for most). The Data has been scrapped from http://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/ using python and beautiful soup. Thanks! -UG
