timed by the ********* Presidency Project since at least 1956.

The only known *********** acceptance speech with a comparable word count was William Howard Taft’s in 1908. That speech ran to 12,055 words and reflected the *********** Party’s platform of a century ago, with repeated mentions of “business prosperity,” “anti-trust law” and “interstate railroads”:

The *********** Party’s policy positions on some controversial matters have become less popular with voters, most notably ********* restrictions and attacks on the Affordable Care Act. Speakers steered clear of such talking points.

The word “*********” did not appear in the 110,000 transcribed words, though the phrase “born and unborn” appeared twice, and “pro-life” and “pro-choice” each appeared once.

“Health care” was mentioned three times, and there were only four references to “prescriptions” or “prescription drugs.”

More Words to Come

The Democratic National Convention will be held Aug. 19-22 in Chicago, though it is not yet confirmed whether Mr. Biden or someone else will be the nominee.
