It's called don't vote for Ron Paul.

I think it would be just the kind of commercial to air late at night on cartoon network's adult swim.

That's great. It would totally fit in to Adult Swim's oddball style.

this is actually a very good idea... people who watch adult swim would be a great target for Paul's message...just like the bumps given by Daily Show and Colbert.

Money should be raised for this just like the Ames Straw Poll Ad.

Anyone know how much it would cost to air a 28 second commercial on Adult Swim???

I would love to see some Ron Paul ads on Adult Swim. If we could somehow get George Lowe or Dana Snyder to do some voiceover work, it would be perfect.

Good video (except the copy needs to be in text on the screen). Right audience on Adult Swim too.

However, if I personally had to guess, the people who watch Adult Swim, probably are not likely to go to the polls. I could be completely wrong, but somehow voting doesn't quite seem to me that it fits that demographic.

I don't know about that. I've watched Adult Swim since it first started.

Someone find out how much. This is a great idea and will go off real good with viewers.

We may not get a very high % voting rate, but it will help add to positive name recognition and add to the buzz among that community.

iunno i watch adult swim a lot and i think a lot of them are (despite being stoners and such) fairly political. i mean shows like family guy and robot chicken poke fun at how bad the government is and sorta opens up teens to exploring the reasoning behind it. which is one of the reasons i think ron paul is clicking with the younger audience is because of programs like this that poke so much fun at society's problems.

i mean im 17 and i gotta say it has a lot to do with why im here right now

Guys, you will most likely have to form a PAC to legally air this. For pricing information check out http://www.spotrunner.com/Schedules/Audience.aspx.
