Just for fun: Write an ad for your candidate!
Advertisements [?]
Just for fun, let's try writing political ads for our candidates. Here's mine for Kucinich:

music: maybe the theme from "Rudy"?

voiceover (Not sure who would be good to do the voiceover -- any suggestions? I was thinking someone like Sam Waterston, but maybe that's too obvious):

You say you want a leader who understands the needs of people like you and will fight for you...

You say you care more about a proven record than about campaign promises...

You say you're tired of slick politicians who are nothing more than a pretty face in an expensive suit...

You say you want a leader who is willing to take risks and doesn't just follow the polls...

Don't just say it...
...Prove it.

Vote for Dennis Kucinich.


As the voiceover is going, have the words also printed on the screen against collages of various images of DK doing his job. End with that b&w photo of him that I've seen as a sig line where he's sort of animated and pointing out to an unseen audience. Oh, and the entire commercial is in black and white, maybe.


Well, that's the general idea. I think it could probably do with a good bit of tweaking. What do you think?

Now, write an ad for your own candidate. Let's get those creative juices flowing!

:)
