Kristi's Story
ReplyDelete- This advertisement is trying to get you to vote for Trump and think bad about Hillary. It does this by telling a story of a person who would have died if they didn't have a gun, and saying that Hillary wants to take away your right of carrying a gun while Trump allows you to carry a gun.
Gerald Daughterty
- This ad uses humor to try and convince you to vote for Gerald Daughterty. It does this by trying to convince you that he cares about his work SO much that he doesn't do anything other than that.
Captain Khan
- This ad attempts to get you to vote for Hillary by placing Trump in a bad light.
The thing that all of these ads have in common is that they do their best to make you vote for somebody, usually by putting another candidate in a bad light.

Post on ALEC:
ReplyDeleteJohn Oliver is hilarious. That is the most important thing I've learned from this. I already knew that local governments have the most influince and yet no one pays attention to them. What I didn't realize was that many of them run unchallenged and once they're in office, because no one pays attention, they can do things without facing conflict of interest or having to even create their own draft language. ALEC is so easy to use, and I can see why many of our representatives use it. What I fail to understand is why this is supposed to be a bad thing. It removes the barrier of being to lazy from people who wouldn't otherwise do their jobs. I don't see the problem with it. But yeah. John Oliver is hilarious.
