Another significant work Campbell contributed to is "Deeds Done in Words: Presidential Rhetoric and the Genre of Governance," which was co-written with Kathleen Hall Jamieson and published in 1990. In 2008, a contemporary, updated edition called "Presidents Creating the Presidency: Deeds Done in Words" was published. In these two works, Campbell and Jamieson create a monumental framework for analyzing the rhetoric surrounding presidential oratory. They argue that the presidency is defined by what the president says and how they say it. Through the framework that Campbell and Jamieson create, they describe the different situations and actions in which presidents operate, such as inaugural addresses, special inaugural addresses in the ascension of a vice president, national eulogies, pardoning rhetoric, state of the union addresses, veto messages, the signing statement as the de facto item veto, presidential war rhetoric, presidential rhetoric of self-defense, and the rhetoric of impeachment. This work covers all the presidents up to George W. Bush.
