He is just trolling Ted Cruz…
Not ready for prime time, clearly.
Terrible candidate has worst staff ever.
Let’s dispel with this notion that Vancouver is not in America. It is in North America. OK, so the shot of that harbor was taken in the afternoon, not in the morning, but let’s dispel with this notion that Vancouver is not in America.
I was JUST about to say that they only thing better than this is if Carnival Cruz did it. It never ceases to amaze me that some campaigns make the most stupid blunders regarding the imagery they use. It reminds me of the time when McCain used a backdrop of Walter Read for one of his speeches. Except is wasn’t Walter Reed Medical Center, it was another place with the same name.
Morning in America? Maybe not, but it is 5:00 somewhere, right Marco? After that ad, you may want to remember that.
…and now you have that song going through your head, don’t you? (If you’re over 40.)
You’re welcome.
Obviously the iRubio software developers need to start over again.
Stock footage sends stock candidate to stock yard…
This is something that Ctrl+Alt+Delete won’t fix.
54° 40’ or Fight!
Rubio: This is intentional. We want America to be as successful as Canada. It has an astoundingly successful health care system compared to US and its cheaper as well. More % people own homes there compared to US. Gun crimes in Canada dwarf in comparison to US. They are very practical socialists.
He’s just trying to make Ted Cruz feel at home.
Welp, you can argue with me if you want but there are ads that show errors of judgment—“demon sheep” comes to mind—and there are ads that show sloppiness, like Jeb! with a mixed-race pair of hands. But this particular kind of thing happens because harried graphic artists are trying to get a project off their desk and grab the first image or whatever that looks right. And sometimes in these ad shops there isn’t really anyone who’s in the habit of checking for accuracy, it’s just not a big deal to them. Does it look right? It does? Then boom—get the client to sign off and get that invoice out. It would speak very well for a campaign if it did, in fact, ask about and check everything, certainly. But I’m not sure it’s a huge black mark if they don’t. The media manager looks at the ad, sees a generic big-city harbor in the early morning, great, love it, on to the next of the 27 imminent crises you have to deal with that day. Did they put a phone-sex hotline number instead of the candidate’s headquarters? No? Then trust me, I’ve seen worse. : )
Yes, we are mourning for America…
We should all enjoy views of other nations while we can. One day all the walls will obscure them.
Does it start with a proud old white man running a Canadian flag up a pole in his yard?
But of course the callow fuck-up who dared to say something Reagan did “didn’t matter” (appointing Kennedy in an election year) manages to screw up a retreat to the Republican safe place of comparing himself to Reagan.
All true, been there done that, but in the context of the drip, drip, drip of verbal blunders and missteps of iRubio it is another mark of a not ready for prime-time player. A player who appears to be lazy and sloppy.
“Hello, me is Marco Rubio, I been in America a great distance… I want for to be a President”
