Message Steve mcqueen

Until November 4, this column will be regularly urging all OpedNews readers to suggest to the Barack campaign, Democratic National Committee and all concerned PACs, ideas for radio, TV, web and print advertisements that will point out in the most pointed manner, why Barack Obama, and not John McCain, should be leading the country for the next four years, and why he needs a Democratic majority in Congress.

List suggestions in comment section. Feel free to link videos and soundbites.

Here's one on the economy to get you started...

Title: Do We Really Need Another Four Years Of Economic Ignorance?

Background Action: Car drives past gas station signs that start up at $1.99, then quick rises to $5.00...

Drop in Video #1 of President Bush being asked by Peter Maer of CBS News Radio, "What's your advice to the average American who is hurting now, facing the prospect of $4-a-gallon gasoline, a lot of people facing ... "
Bush: "Wait, what did you just say? You're predicting $4-a-gallon gasoline?"
Maer: "A number of analysts are predicting $4-a-gallon gasoline."
Bush: "Oh, yeah? That's interesting. I hadn't heard that."

 

SOFT CUT TO...

McCain: I'd love to tell you that I have an immediate answer to (gas price increase), but I don't...

 

Narrator: In a Wall Street Journal interview Republican presidential candidate John McCain admitted that he "doesn't really understand economics."

Action: $5.00 gas price sign explodes!

Do we really need four more years of Republican economic ignorance? November third, pull the lever for Barack Obama.
