i need some good ol liberal ideas with this smear commercial for gov class
ok........
im taking government.
We are doing mock elections.
the class was seperated into 2 groups, democrats and republicans.
I already made one smear commercial on the guy where i completely destroyed him using my prime editing skills.
But for this commercial, i want to seal the deal.

He has stated that he wants to "end immigration".
He is also very timid and uncool.
He also has a funny accent.


Also, im gathering unflattering images of well known conservatives to show at the end.

How can i smear this guy?
what do immigrants do for america?

1. Pay Social Security
So Republicans have money to borrow to pay the bills.

2. How about start the country?
All of us were immigrants.

Do some research on the Puke's genealogical history...

"If xxxxxx had his way in 1836, Nathaniel Cummingsworth would have never arrived in Boston, Mass. on a crude, falling apart passenger ship. Who was Nathaniel Cummingsworth? xxxxxx's own grandfather."
"If xxxxxx had his way when your ancestors came to America, would you even exist?"

Some snappier variation on that seems good to me.

Good luck :thumbsup:

5. Here is an idea
I'm (name here) and I approve this message

(name of opponent), throughout this campaign, has made some very insipid comments. He has come out in support of ending immigration. Immigrants have been a gift to this country, and unless he is a native american, he should not be able to talk. Although there is currently an issue with illegal immigration, the best way to deal is by repealing NAFTA, not by ending immigration altogether. That's like decapitating oneself over dandruff.

(pictures of Ronald Reagan, Nixon, and perhaps the "Daisy" clip would work well).

7. Just Say Your Opponent Wants To Compromise Our Forces In Iraq
About 4 percent of military recruits are immigrants, and they are currently fighting in Iraq, so in order to make the simplistic argument no immigrations = less troops for Eye-Rack

8. Are you kidding? Except for Native Americans, this country
is NOTHING BUT immigrants. Get him with the unpatriotic approach. If this were a different year, say 1910, which immigrants would he chose to ban: Italians, Russian Jews, Germans, Irish? The hypocrisy factor is the way to go.

11. Immigrants built this country.
Edited on Fri Nov-26-04 10:37 AM by K-W
My first instinct would be to remind people that most americans are decended from immigrants. Point out that those immigrants to were scapegoated and harassed only to become the foundation of what has made America great. How many of our scientists, leaders, soldiers, working class americans, wouldnt be here without immigration.

In every generation small minded people blame immigrants for problems they have nothing to do with only for those immigrants to work hard and contribute amazing things to our society.

13. A compelling remark from an immigrant:
"What will become of the world if there's no America to run to?"

Take away their hope of emmigrating and they'll have no reason NOT to hate us...
