There was a discussion in another thread about doing a "compare and contrast" type ad, rather than a straight attack ad. I was thinking about the recent Judicial Watch "Top Ten Corrupt Politicians" list, and came up with this, called "Presidential Timber?"

The music is meant to appeal to (or at least pass with) people over 30. :D

Enjoy!

Let me know what you think of the concept.

I love it!

Would change a couple of things near the end.

There's a line that states: Corruption in Washington is epidemic.

Then: "Politics as usual is making ME sick." I'd change the 'me' to 'us'.

Then instead of "Somebody call a doctor!" use "We need a doctor!"

i think there are better videos of RP to use for the ending.

other than that, its excellent.

Thanks, I used that one for the "they're not loyal to morality, they're not loyal to the Constitution, that's what they should be loyal to." ending to contrast what we'd just seen.

I liked it too, good pics, nice layout, nice big print 8-) good music.

I agree it should be on TV.

Maybe put the link in there at the end that goes to the Judicial Watch article.

Politics these days makes me nauseous...

or queasy...

Help, Quick, Somebody call T-H-E Doctor ;-)

Do we have a pic anywhere of Dr. Paul in just a white doctor overcoat vs. the baby? (since the video isn't about babies).

Or just the Doc in his regular "presidential-looking" blue business suit with a stethescope around his neck, hehe.

aaaay, it's good, all good!

I'd like to see some RP TV commercials on the local Christian channels, there's 3 of them around here, and I don't think it costs that much (to reach all those evangelicals that other thread was discussing last night).

I think the good doctor is shown bringing Liberty back into the world in that painting, which is why I used it. Thanks for the compliments. :)
