Notes from Ferdy - Lawsuit Time and Obama's Image Problem
A Hillary Clinton supporter is suing the DNC on the grounds that Barack Obama is not a U.S. citizen. Meanwhile, the Obama campaign is suing to block an ad linking the Senator with a former terrorist. It's lawsuit time as we come to the end of the Democratic convention.
Both of these incidents reflect the liability of choosing a candidate with no experience. We know next to nothing about Barack Obama, so it's easy to assume the worst. This is why Monday's convention highlight was Mrs. Obama's desperate attempt to prove her husband is just like the rest of us.
Obama's problem is that even though he thinks he's a superior life form, he is still ultimately human. His response to these constant implications that he's cozy with terrorists simply adds fuel to the fire. In order to get past this problem once and for all, he needs to convert this seeming liability into an asset. As a public service, I had Bruce develop the following advertisement, which I offer to the Obama campaign completely royalty-free.
Respectfully submitted,
Ferdinand T. Cat
