Video: Barack Obama Presidential Ad

by John Little on 15/12/2006

It’s easy to like Barack Obama. But you’d better have an affinty for socialism if you decide to vote for him.

The 60-second spot is the work of Maryland-based draftObama.org and features a collage of photos of Obama making speeches and meeting with people while he speaks about the raising the minimum wage, improving education and the lives of seniors and about a new direction for foreign policy.

The ad begins with the written words, “We can replace fear,” superimposed over a photo of President George W. Bush, “with hope.” It ends with the written words, “Believe again.”

According to group spokesman Kris Schultz, a former executive director of the New Hampshire Democratic Party, the ad was produced by Bud Jackson and John Hlinko, who produced an effective ad for a draft Wesley Clark movement in 2003.

And we all know how far that Wesley Clark movement went don’t we?
