*AMERICAN HORIZON* BERNIE'S Newest Campaign Ad: Beautiful, Inspiring, Optimistic ~ A+



Bernie Sanders new visionary campaign ad, "American Horizon" is scheduled to air on Iowa TV Tuesday, ahead of the Feb. 1 nominating caucuses. It's an uplifting image of America's land, industry, people and workers accented by Sanders powerful words,

"There are those who say we cannot defeat a corrupt political system and fix a rigged economy", in the opening,

and as the sun rises over a field of corn,

"But I believe we need to lift our vision above the obstacles in place and look to the American horizon".

The piece also features the Senator playing ball with his grandson.

- Superb Effort, Moving and Uplifting. Bravo!

Another masterpiece!!!!

I have said it before....... He knows how to play the game, and he plays it well.

We have a candidate, that can walk the walk, and talk the talk.

I'm sold.

Go Bernie, Go.

finds fault with America and this one has given up. It is aspirations and solidarity through unity that make change happen and we will band with him because he has asked and we will come. Remember the moon if you don't think so. It was impossible too but JFK asked us to believe and we did.

The ad also reminded me of JFK's historic speech and the US space/moon program. For the first time in years, I'm very motivated and it feels great!

Designed to appeal to freeloaders who just want more stuff, like health care, a living wage, equal pay, college education. We can't have that; all the serious people say it can't happen.

I keep hearing R Kelly's I Believe. And this is the first time in my voting life that I've truly believed that a better future was possible... Don't break my heart, America.

an observation to your inability to see Bernie's ad as the inspiring and uplifting video that it was. It only makes me wonder because I have seen no such ads that are inspiring and uplifting from team Hillary that maybe the people following her are looking through clouded lenses and are simply unable to see the truth....

and since we are on the subject of truth, which of the lies that Hillary is spreading about Senator Sanders do you disagree with?

You were in such a rush to leave a shitty response that you forgot to write what it "did absolutely for you". Nice work dipshit. Here's a song for you and your 109 posts

This is so inspiring and shows exactly why every Democratic primary voter should elect Bernie Sanders as our nominee..... No other candidate is launching such an inspiring ad....
