Group Parodies Political Ads To Make A Point [Video]

The group Represent Us has created a parody political ad to make the point that what you see is not always what you get.

The beginning of the “ad” has the candidate tout “"Hi, I'm Gil Fulbright, and the people who bankroll my political career tell me I'm running for President. So here I am!”

It goes on to say "Ideas, policies, morals? These are things I don't need. What I need is $2 billion.”

Though the group has created an amusing campaign piece, directorJosh Silver spells out the point of it all, "He's just shining a light on how politicians are routinely being bribed by special interest lobbyists, and swaying their votes in their favor, and the people who are left out are we, the American people.”
