Who the man?

i loved how Obama's campaign used this ad to promote his candidacy for the presidential election. in this ad, Obama's effort are shown in trying to make a connection between the american people. the ad showed that Barack acknolegded the economic issues that their nation was facing. From the war in Afghanistan to the finacial crisis, Barack cared enough to include them in his advertisement.

i think that this video touched the many hearts of the american people as well as other people of the world because it showed that really cared. i also love how his campaign took a very popular beer commercial and used it as his own. in the campaign commercial, the actors are the same and they still moaned and yelled at each other but for different reasons( it was hilarious). the commercial is very close to what people are actually expereiencing nowadays. i mean, whenever you listen to the news, more often than once, we will here about a homicide or suicide that was caused by the failing financial economy. i loved how the commercial showed the man's stock going down and him commiting suicide (or trying to), but it was all too real! then there was the man outside, even though he sounded happy, the backround was just not working out, it showed a massive storm and hurricane outiside the house, probabaly based on the Hurricane Katrina tradgedy. in this ad, all of the crisis's that america was facing was touched and really made Obama an easier person to relate or connect with because he undertood what they were going through.

i really that that this was a great way of catching the attention of the american people. it was a wonderful way to promote Barack Obama and what he stood for, and that was change.

after all of the issues are adresses, the jobless man looks at the tv, and realizes that change is up. Barack's message in this specific commercial was to ensure that change was comming for the american nation and that he will lead them into that change.
