I don't really like discussing my personal views on the election or who i'm going to vote for. I think that's something personal. I will say that I feel like our economy is in a lot of trouble and needs some help. I'm not sure how it's going to be done, but I hope whoever becomes president fixes it. As far as Media playing a part in my opinion on the upcoming election, I feel that it's keeping much more aware and updated then the previous year's. For example, everytime I sign onto the internet, a news post is up about the election and the canidates. It keeps me interested and involved.

How does advertising affect you? When is the last time advertising has influenced your buying habits? Post an ad you feel is effective, why. Post an ad you feel is ineffective, why.

I think advertising affects me greatly. When i'm watching TV I always see adds for sales at clothing stores and it always makes me think, "I want that outfit!"

I found this budweiser commercial very affective. It's very humerous and makes you think about having a good time.

This commercial was pretty funny, but I feel like it did a bad advertising job. I'm still not even sure what it was trying to advertise.
