Today in Class We watched segment 5 of "The Persuaders." I planned on showing 6 as well, so if you have the chance, check it out:

We visited The Living Room Candidate and viewed 10 or so presidental campaign ads. These included:
"Optimists" (Kerry '04)
"Commitment" (Kerry '04)
"Wolves" (Bush '04)

"Morning" (Clinton '92)
"Rebuild America" (Clinton '92)
"Best Person" (Perot '92)

"The Bear" (Reagan '84)
"Daisy" (Johnson '64)
"Ice Cream" (Johnson '64)
"Jackie O. in Espanol" (Kennedy '60)

We also checked out and discussed Kinky Friedman's online "Kinkytoons" ad campaign here.

Finally, we dropped by Gov. Perry's campaign website and watched this ad. We didn't look at this Perry website, but you might if you're interested.  ¶ 7:59 AM
