Baby kissing
Baby kissing is a practice where politicians kiss babies in order to garner public support. The practice appears to have originated during the Jacksonian democracy along with other techniques such as "banners, badges, parades, barbecues, free drinks and baby kissing [which were used] in an effort to 'get out the vote'".
