"The Choice" - Obama For America TV Ad
Read the President's Plan: OFA.BO/MX3Ss8
"Over the next four months you have a choice to make. Not just between two political parties or even two people. It's a choice between two very different plans for our country.
Governor Romney's plan would cut taxes for the folks at the very top, roll back regulations on big banks, and he says that if we do our economy will grow and everyone will benefit.
But you know what? We tried that top-down approach. It's what caused the mess in the first place.
I believe the only way to create an economy built to last is to strengthen the middle class. Asking the wealthy to pay a little more so we can pay down our debt in a balanced way. So that we can afford to invest in education, manufacturing, and homegrown American energy for good middle class jobs. Sometimes politics can seem very small. But the choice you face, it couldn't be bigger."
OFA Press Release:
Obama for America Released New Television Advertisement: "The Choice"
CHICAGO -- Obama for America released a new television advertisement today titled "The Choice." The American people will decide over the next four month between two fundamentally different plans for our country, and OFA's new ad features President Obama laying out the choice of how to grow the economy, create middle-class jobs and pay down the debt. The President's plan ensures everyone pays their fair share and still invests in the things we need to create jobs and grow our economy over the long term, like education, energy, and infrastructure.
i love this..God bless u and ur team!! OBAMA 2012!!!
Yes Obama.2012 -2016
This is a great ad! Love it!
I was wondering if he would say "Im Barack Obama and I approve this message."
Wow, I have to say...I am completely impressed. This is an amazing ad, as I think it really strikes the "choice" election that the democrats want 2012 to be. I hope both sides can do more ads like this. It's time to set aside politics and do what's best for the American people. I really hope that the recent tragedy in Colorado will bring politicians back a step, and understand they should be grieving for us and understanding OUR problems. Not the other way around.
If America doesn't want Obama, then England will take him because we need him.
This is how political ads should be. Not sensationalist, not meaningless quips, not out-of-context quotes, not an ad-hominem attack, just the candidate explaining major differences between his plan and his opponent's.
I don't understand why any working-class citizen wouldn't vote for Obama.
Four more years
I can't wait for another 4 years of Obama. I've never been able to say that about a sitting President in my voting lifetime (1988 was my first presidential election). This is the first President I have ever had confidence in, the first President I actually feel gives a damn about the rest of us and will try to make the best decisions for us, not his wealthy friends. I'm looking forward to another 4 years.
this is a good one to see...
Crossing my fingers for you guys up here in Canada. GO OBAMA
Personal statement ads are the most effective if done right like what you see here.
this ad gave me goosebumps :P
Obama 2012!
Bring factories back to the us with incentives to companies who do it, and punish the companies who keep it over seas. Simple was to solve the job crisis. For some reason, it hasn't happend yet. The revenue the us would make, along with how many jobs would be created is good enough of a reason to do it.
I'm from Canada, and I've been keeping up with American politics because this election also affects my country indirectly. I'm just hoping Americans won't make the same mistake as the 2004 elections and vote practically. Nevertheless, both candidates reveal distinct flaws. But Mitt Romney will be the peril for this country.
love you barack! four more years.... im not a democrat...im just a guy who likes science and people who respect it
How I wish I had more than two choices. Makes it feel like I really have no choice at all. Maybe in the future when technology can promote a candidate enough to leave huge financial backers out. A man can dream can't he?
This is such a great ad! I saw it on TV today and immediately searched it up on KZhead to watch it again! Share it with your friends! :-)
Nice video. Only thing about it is that its obvious Obama is look to the side of the camera, and not at the camera. Its a bit distracting and breaks the personal connection he is trying to make.
Obama 2012! :)
I have the urge to say the mottovation.... YES WE CAN YES WE CAN
If you want to help the middle class put the 32 trillion dollars the super rich have in off shore accounts back in circulation and stop wasting money on drones and body scanners or at least don't price gouge us so bad. 300K for a 10K scanner? Really? that is not America Mr President.
Can you guys run this ad in Michigan? We're getting hit with Cross Road GPS and GOP ads.
I look forward to four more years, Mr President. Forward!!
Obama is right to put the record straight. Romney is playing games.
Thats right...You know what time it is!
Gerrell--Please look at one or more of the compiled lists of Obama's achievements in office. Almost everyone thinks he's mostly failed (because there's so much noise about Congress trying to defeat him?), but his list of success in things that matter to us is surprisingly long--over 200 achievements we never or rarely hear about.
I choose hope and change.
I look so forward to that debate!!!
I think what he meant to say is "A choice between three people." Obama, Mitt Romney and Ron Paul.....
I can't wait to see the debates! Obama 2012!
Romneys gunna try to kick up as much dust and confusion as possible, but for those who manage to see through it, this is what it comes down to. Obama 2012
Yay Obama!!
Well chosen words! I think he is right .
Barack Obama : still winning.
Obama is just.... to awesome :P
You're the light at the end of the tunnel. for us Latinos... OBAMA 2012
BRAZIL WANTS OBAMA #gobama
Independents for Obama 2012! The Republican Party has moved way way too far to the right. They don't represent the opinions or beliefs of average Americans. I voted for McCain in 2008, but Romney is such a terrible choice, I'll be voting for Obama this time around.
great add! Obama 2012
I like the new campaign approach. I approve of this message.
My president. . . . :)
We must move this country forward together not divided. Thaat is why I am voting Obama in November
Go OBAMA NOVEMBER 2012!!!
Romney's changed his plans so many times that by now I'm sure Romney's pretty much said everything possible...
A choice between two people? Are you kidding? We're not supposed to have a two-party system here in America... What about the other political parties? Are they not choices as well?
barack :D
Although I much prefer Obama over Mitten, Obama should learn to look into the camera lens >.
I just like Obama. He's a good guy. Middle class is the future. For the rich, how much money do you REALLY need?! It's okay if you give some back. You don't need that excess. Some people have trouble keeping food on their tables. Please have a little heart.
This is one hell of an amazing video !!!
I wish I could vote for you (too young), but next election I will be voting for your party.
Man...I really wish I was old enough to vote in this election. I'll be 17 and a HALF by November.... :(
Drop "The Table" and rerun this as the closing ad. It's much more effective.
strong strong ad. romney's ads have no substance -- that is not just a jab, i mean it seriously. i don't think romney is "evil" or whatever, i just think his ideas are bad, and he has no details because he realizes most people would not like his details.
OBAMA 2012. YOU HAVE MY VOTE FOR SURE.
I suppose this won't post but here goes. You have more than 2 party, people and plan choices
Obama will utterly annihilate Romney in the debates. By the way, nice suit, Mr. President.
Love you Obama! let's win this!!
Never have i seen a man aged this fast in four years. He cares too much for this country, OBAMA 2012 we support you sir
I'm Canadian. I hate the US. But if it comes down to it. I guess BAMA should win
I like how Barack Obama talks to you like an every day American. I love that quality in a President, and I believe he understands the everyday American and the struggles we face.
I support President Obama! FORWARD
I'm just a 16 year old canadian kid but back in 08 i remember how important that choice was for america now this choice is important for the world
"As deportation levels have risen to record highs, farmers throughout the country struggle with labor shortages and have cut acreage and output. Meanwhile, technology firms have expanded operations in Canada and other countries to more easily hire the skilled workers they need. President Obama may benefit politically from a pro-immigration image, but it is about time he actually earned it."
Why does he keep saying that Romney wants to lower taxes for the rich when Romney said over and over at the debates that he will not lower taxes for the rich. Does he know something about Romney's plan that Romney doesn't?
OBAMA 2012 I trust in him
Don't care if he's elected. As long as Mitt Romney isn't.
i don't actually like 100% of the stuff he has done, but his opposition is not making a good case for themselves.
We have utmost faith in you POTUS OBAMA we have your back an will try not to allow them to steal this election. You have all that we americans want an need, someone whom cares about us all not just a select few as r money does. We need you an hope people get it instead of listening to the lies out there. Good must win over evil. OBAMA 2012
OBAMA 2012
The choice is pretty clear. Without this president, I wouldn't healthcare and I wouldn't be able to go to college.
President Obama 2012!
OBAMA 2012!!!!
Do you realize that you're comparing a 8 year span to a 2 year span? Just saying dude, might want to think about that.
Yeah, what is up with this censorship?
I can't wait for the two of them to face off in the debates. Romney almost seems like a decent candidate behind the smokescreen of his campaign, but debating next to Obama he's going to look like a total fool.
i am not from america but barack obama must be back the president of usa
We love you President Barack Obama!
we need Obama in the white house he is for everyone!!! not just the RICH like some person is.
Obama, Obama, Obama
Saw this on TV and right at 0:35 just about made me puke! Yeah it's the wealthy's fault we're all in debt up to our eyeballs... Let's remember who really spent all the money...
GObama
I hope he wins, really do not want george w. bush policies back in place
good one Mr. President. I would vote for you if i was american :D
Obama
great approach, the gop would never be so straightforward or people would see what they have really been supporting
RON PAUL 2012!!!
The difference between Obama's and Romney's ads: Romney lies, Obama tells the truth
Finally someone who understands! I'm voting for Obama.
I don't love Obama by any means, he's just been 'alright' as a president... but I'm definitely voting to keep him in office because Romney is so incredibly bad. lol
Obama ROCKS
Awesome video by an awesome president
Obama 2012! Four more years!
Obama FTW
Going to "strengthen the middle class" by diverting more private money to the government? How's that been working for ya?
QUIT FORCING PEOPLE TO HUG YOU IN YOUR ADS. Oh yeah. click delete when this is viewed by the poster.
Ron Paul enough said
LOVE U OBAMA U ROCK
