Hopefully this isn't a re-post. Very good ad for what it is -- hopefully it GETS ON THE AIR

I like it, but I also think Ron Paul talking directly to America would be a powerful ad as well...and I really think he should.

Is this really new? The first 90% seems to be reused from another ad, and just the end is changed.

Still not the production quality that one would expect with all the money they have, but oh well. Those cries have fallen upon deaf ears months ago.

Yeah I agree. These ads sort of make him look like everybody else, except with really low poll numbers. I want to highlight the differences...that is what makes him great. I'm sure the people designing these ads have demographics and statistics in front of them, what do I know, but I can't help but feel we're getting lost in the chaos of the primary by not standing out enough, as stupid as that seems. However this new ad does point out the hard truths that most other candidates are content to dance around. People who are affected by the economy and the war will at least realize that Ron recognizes there is a problem.

Yeah, all of these ads never show what Paul looks like or what he says. Not sure why they exclude his voice and face, and then complain that no one knows who he is.

This ad has a similar tone and theme to the Morning in America ad for Reagan. Luntz highlighted the Reagan ad as an example of what to do right.

You beat me to it.

The speech here is fast. Like it's urgent.

Ron NEEDS to speak directly to the camera in a 2 minute piece. That's what sold me and I imagine everyone else. How do we get this through to HQ?

Running a 2 minute ad? We need to be practical here. The costs for a reoccurring 2 minute ad on network TV would bankrupt the campaign fairly quickly I imagine.

Having an ad with just debate clips of Ron schooling the other cardboard candidates
would be quite cool. Although perhaps the campaign doesn't have the rights to the debates footage.

 

[stevedasbach]

Good ad. The only thing that seems weird to me is the end. IMO, instead of saying "we have Ron Paul" it should say "Ron Paul for President".

 

[hummtide]

Ahhh.. a religious spin to it! Clever!

 

[Ronin]

Face to face would be good. His unfavorables are killing him with undecided values voters.

No one else is doing this. So many people have their heads buried in the sand and it is hard to change their mind, it's hard to break through. This ad may be a little soft, but he is saying that something is wrong. I would like to see him make a bold statement about why the rest of the candidates are fiscally wrong and will not fix our fragile economy.

I also like the subtle reference to God.

It's boring... slow. and not catchy... I don't even remember who it's for ( well of course I do, but no one else will )

We need a Head on commenrical for Ron Paul...
repetitive!!!

 

[Change]

I really like it. It is very visual about the current situation and uplifting. I think all the political ads are the same, this is different. Shows the people!

 

[thegr8drronpaul]

Ok, maybe two min. is an exaggeration, but he needs to talk to the camera! These narrators are so lame and BOORRIIIIINNNNGGGGG

 

[Molly1]

That ad says nothing.

What is his voting record?

How does he stand on the issues?

The ad doesn't tell us.

Useless!

EXACTLY! That is what they were going for I bet. And this ad or a similar one needs to be run nationally.

 

[Netwarrior]

Yes...they are very similar to the award-winning Ronald Reagan "Morning in America" TV ads. Very brilliant to go after those old school Reagan fanatics. Old people always vote.
