Hey Folks,
Posted this on the Daily Dose:
Could the campaign pull out all the stops and start a national advertising campaign about the march on the convention center? We need a hook or meme in these ads like the old lady in those commercials, “Help! I’ve fallen and I can’t get up!” or “Where’s the beef?”
Maybe we could do 30 second spot where we have an animated America running around asking, “Have you seen my Constitution? I’ve lost my Constitution! Where is it?”, asking animated cartoons/caricatures of:Bush, Cheney, Rice etc. at first, then McCain, Obama, and Hillary. All of these caricatures would answer various expressions of “no” (i.e shrugging shoulders, ignoring the animated America, kicking it out of the room etc etc). For example, Bush would shake his head and say “it’s nothing but a piece of paper!” , Cheney would snarl, “No! Go away!” then bury his head into a newspaper that headlines, “Halliburton and Iraq: The money just keeps rolling in.” Obama would shrug then go back to his “Global Tax Bill: How to Bankrupt America”. Same with Hillary who boots the Constitution out of the room, and picks up a report entitled, “Medicare: Wait till you see what it costs when it is free!”. Cut to Bernanke, who would shake his head, and go back to turning the crank on his printing press with breakneck speed, having money fly out of it, while a chart behind him entitled “Value of the Dollar” has a red line going down through the floor behind him.
The animated America would become increasingly more frantic going from caricature to caricature until finally America hears off to the left of the screen the voice of the good Doctor gently saying, “I have it right here.” in a soft but firm voice.
Camera pans left, and there is Ron Paul (not a character, but the real man) holding the Constitution out toward the animated America. The America approaches him, jumps into his arms, then sighs with relief. Ron Paul looks at his new charge and says again, softly but firmly, “I will do what you entrusted me to do.” or something like that.
Fade to black with no audio but a screen that says:
March for Freedom
Republican Nation Convention

Take America Back!
