With "Presidential Bid" Andrews asks questions about how power is acquired, and how this relates to class and race in the United States during the late 1980s. It asks these questions indirectly, as everything the artist actually says in the video is a statement. The conceptual and political energy of the piece exists between these firm statements and implied questions.
