Presidential Ads, Take-Three



Mike Gravel is the little known Democratic side of the Libertarian coin, with Ron Paul being the other side. As with Ron Paul, I don't agree with everything Gravel says, but at this point, I'm ready to pitch out the usual suspects and give these guys a shot. He's got teachers, teachers, making ads for him. Not Madison Avenue, not some advertising giants, just a couple teachers.

btw, the "crazy" reputation? He gets that from the likes of Rush Limbaugh and Ann Coulter. They don't like anyone who can look them in the eye. They don't like people who *think*, and who believe, given the chance, that the average American can think and maybe understand the metaphors that the teachers were going for with their videos. They certainly don't like people who think and then aren't in lockstep with them (goes without saying, I know). What do you suppose Limbaugh and Coulter have to fear from a couple of upstarts like Gravel and Paul?
