The 2012 presidential election is quickly approach as the
presidential candidates are buckling down to gain all the votes they can obtain
to achieve their goal of becoming the Leader of the Free World. There have been
multiple advertisements that are being produced by each candidate to get their
word out about what they will do for our country. Most of the advertisements,
however, state what the other candidate may do that would not make him an ideal
choice for our country. In one particular advertisement, that was created by
the Mitt Romney campaign, gives a negative look on what Barack Obama has done
in his four year term.
Other detailed that enforced that impression was Obama
speaking to those that worked at the plant because he was making the promise
that the government will make sure that the plant will be there for another
hundred years. The more important part
was Obama made the promise twice. The second promise was when the Janesville
plant was on the verge of closing. Also having many promises made during
Obama’s campaign were broken during his time in Washington. The images directs the viewer’s eyes by
showing Obama speaking and pictures of the people that worked in Janesville showing
how disappointed they looked. This reinforced what was important by showing
Obama actually speaking about his promises and what it did to the people in the
town. The text that was included was words that were just reinstated what was
said in the video. Such as simple
promises made, simply broken. The argument that is being made is that Obama
made multiple promises during his campaign four years ago but while he was in
Washington his promises were broken.
The first thing that grabbed my attention was that it showed
the Janesville GM plant and that it had a promise that was simply broken. The
color was black and white for most of the video and to me that is very gloomy
so it seemed more of a depressing feeling throughout the video. The style also
went along with the gloomy feeling which made it difficult for me to watch the
video.
