with a little post production on the fonts this would be a great official ad!

a giant CG tear in the RP supporter's eye at the end would top it off ... jk

But seriously, I love the video, the apathetic don't know what they are missing!

Instead of showing the lady handing out the slimjims at the end, a nice

You can make a difference

then

Don't be that girl

would make it just a little bit better.

my 2 cents.

Hey that was filmed in Charlotte, NC! My hometown. Hopefully we will get a good turnout tommorow when Ron Paul comes here. I'll film it and post in on youtube.

Nice, but will it really work as an ad? Looks too... um... more fit for a TV episode than an ad. Also, it says nothing about his platform and it just seems like bandwagon/cult propaganda.

It would be perfect if it showed the other side of the Slim Jim.... the picture of the Revolution crowd.

The audio of RP is from the youtube debate, and from the Palladium Theater speech afterwards. Looooove the quotes.

Excellent

Who is she? who did the ad?

Who is she? who did the ad?

The speculation is that it was filmed in Charlotte. I sent the Charlotte Meetup Organizer an email asking about it, since they're not far away from our group here in NC. I'll let you know if I get a response!

Awesome ad, seriously. This is smart marketing and would definitely pique people's interest if they were apathetic. I'd love to see it on TV

Bad ad, seems like it says cool people don't take slim jims on loser candidates.

That's what my friend's are getting from it as well.

I don't think your friends are representative of most people. It's clear to me watching this ad that the woman who doesn't care is portrayed as apathetic and snobbish. Anybody watching that would not identify with her, or want to.

I think my friends ARE, and that's the point. None of them are RP supporters, they can watch it objectively, so they aren't going to ass kiss when they watch the ad.

They took it negatively, so I will as well.

Hey, if that's what happened, then it's a valid data point. Let's collect a few more.

Anyone else show this ad to someone who is not already a Ron Paul supporter? Please share your results here.

actually, the other side of that slim jim is Ron Paul and Ronald Reagan, and some other guy in the middle. :cool:

Very well done .... I would end it on a positive note "Who is this? He wants to end the war? Hmmmm .... "

Nope that wouldn't fit with the idea of "Don't be THAT girl". Women need to be offended in order to look into stuff. One of the ways to get women to looking into stuff is to tick them off (controversy) and they will then look into it to try and prove you wrong. Remember women are all about revenge and pushing the blame onto others. They use excuses such as being busy, married with children, sick, old, young, "doesn't matter" etc.

This commercial directly hits the % of the population that comes up with every excuse on the face of the Earth to NOT care about politics.

The middle part could be a lot better imo. Some of the audio is not good enough for TV (it would need cleaned up slightly), but the concept is brilliant.

I just showed it to my friends girlfriend, who is not into politics and knows nothing about Ron Paul, and she's now asking me questions about him. Seems to have worked?

people always seem to like ron paul when I explain everything, and then I tell them they have to register republican and they automatically change their opinion and say they can't trust him, no matter how much I show his record to say otherwise... then I tell him the other republicans hate him then they get interested again.
