Mike Gravel Thinks Differently

I was perusing Youtube the other day, and I stumbled upon this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4oAB83Z1ydE.

Being an ardent Apple user, I found this classic commercial appealing, but then I chose, to coin a phrase, to stop and think.

The very basis of Apple's marketing campaign way back when (and now) was that they offered the refreshing alternative to the ordinary. I think the same applies to Sen. Mike Gravel, and his presidential campaign. Sen. Gravel is the only candidate who realizes what the American people need to hear, not merely want to hear, so he's a candidate that 'Thinks Differently.'

Mike Gravel is a candidate who knows that one man, without the support of major corporations, can make a difference, that's why he 'Thinks Different.'

This is a 'campaign ad' I based (very closely) off of that Apple 'Think Different" ad. The same analogies, allusions, and associations all apply, and I'm quite proud of this video.

It's time that the American people think different, not only in their choice of Personal Computer, but in their choice for the American President.

I'm voting for Mike Gravel because he 'Thinks Differently..'

Rate it. Favorite it. Make people know that there's an alternative in the 2008 election. From all that I've learned from working with Sen. Gravel, it's that one man can make a difference.

Apparently, the Ron Paul Campaign had someone make a similar video. I learned about it three days after I uploaded this one, so I certainly didn't base this off of the Ron Paul version.

That said, I certainly wasn't the total creative genius behind this. Apple Computers had a similar ad release a few years ago, only centered around their product. A link to said ad can be found above.

Isn't it "Mike Gravel Thinks Differently"?

Yes, and I'm an English Major, but I was copying the Apple ad.

[PoliticalAnalysis]

Hey thanks!

I'm also staff on the campaign. I run the official Youtube channel, I don't get to check this one much.

[LordTempist]

Would he be willing to dedicate himself to being the first president "not" to use war powers since Eisenhower? I would vote for that. That is a vote for change.

[PoliticalAnalysis]

Of course!

Keep in mind, Ike and Mike have a lot in common when it comes to the Military Industrial Complex.

Ron Paul, Mike Gravel, and Dennis Kucinich need to work together.

[Whoo69]

Mike Gravel, Ron Paul, and Dennis Kucinich are actually the 3 most patriotic candidates in both parties running today! They are true men of the people, not special interests or wall street.

It tells me that there's a lot of corporate money out there influencing how people think, media access, distribution channels, etc. It shows how corrupt our system has become.

[DrWillyWildcat]

Not only that, we can't run around on the internet like chickens with our heads cut off, we need to become organized, we need to have teams of people searching for comments about the three and responding promptly with intelligence not arrogance.

[p717]

Wildcat is right. ALL of us need to follow their example and become active locally, put more people (for the people) in place of the elitists.

[DrWillyWildcat]

the supporters of the three need to work together
