must be better ways to research politicians (political who's whos,

reading manifestos, etc.) than looking them up in a general
encyclopaedia.
Correct. But to avoid the Andrew Keen-ish spin, one should note that "search"
and "research" have become rather different animals. "Search" on
Wikipedia, as we know, is brilliant if you are trying to compile a list of politicians.
You'll get your list and the risk of there not being an article on someone relevant to
American national politics as a candidate is low. As we always say, this should only be
the first step in your research.
Question - was this paid work?
