say "wasssaaaaaaap" to the campaign for change.

Re. The Campaign Trail

As we all know, Obama was elected president this November. For months, Barack Obama and John Mccain have been releasing multiple ad campaigns to reach the people of America, and encourage them to vote. I found that the remake of the Budweiser commercial was a really, smart idea by Barack's campaign. The original commercial (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L38wthA4Ld0), showed the guys just chilling out, watching the game and having a bud- not worrying or having any concern about any of the issues presently happening in the country. The remake of the commercial (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qq8Uc5BFogE), showed what happened to the same guys 8 years later. The commercial focused on the issues happening in the United States today; including unemployment, the war in Iraq, health care, stock markets and environmental issues. I liked the way Obama's campaign used the same guys for the commercial and pretty much the same format but using and bringing the issues of concern today to America's attention. It was humorous, amusing and able to grab my attention, and I'm sure the people of America too- young and old. Barack Obama's message was change in the country and his dedication to do this make him a deserving winner.

America's finally saying 'wasssssaaaaap' to change.
true, true :)
