The commercial I want to see:
If I had any clue how to make my own YouTube video, I would do this myself...

First I want a long list of all the policy issues in Obama's plan scrolling up the screen. Stuff like (random points taken from his economic policy page):


-Provide Additional Tax Rebates to American Workers
-Establish a $10 billion Foreclosure Prevention Fund
-Extend and Expand Unemployment Insurance
-Provide a Tax Cut for Working Families
-Eliminate Income Taxes for Seniors Making Less than $50,000
-Simplify Tax Filings for Middle Class Americans
etc...

The entire long list just scrolls and scrolls.

After this, I want a 5 second contrast against what McCain is campaigning for: dirty tactics, Britney Spears, and Paris Hilton...add a few of his famous flip-flops too?

If McCain thought he could win on the ISSUES, then he would campaign on the ISSUES.

Thoughts??

2. or perhaps the actual celebrities that do support him?
Oprah, George Clooney, Halle Berry, etc?

A "yes he's one of us, but that's because he's one of you" type message?

3. The tax break for seniors would help bring back a puma or two.
And a lot of Mccain leaning seniors need a break right now.

4. There's a lot of good stuff on his website that people don't know about
The man is pretty damn smart and it's clear he's thought through the issues. I'm in the process of memorizing as much of his policies as I can for future debates. It's good to be prepared.
