Very cute, and probably very effective.
I always wanted one of those kiddie cars...I never got one.
:(
Congress didn't help me out with that, either.

I'm sorry jesus fish never got his kiddie car, but this ad can definitely prove effective. It's easier to listen to the issues without the debating politicians.

That video is adorable! I think that will really grab the attention of people because thats what future generations will have to go through.

The fact that the producer used his own daughter of around 4 years in creating the ad is highly effective marketing. Viewers relate more sympathetically to children and seeing a child in need, makes realizing the seriousness of the situation easier. Props for her cuteness :D

Cute little commercial. The Conservatives and Republicans have been doing a much better job of using creative commercials such as this one to get their word out than they have in previous years.

I am with Jesus Fish, I bet that was extremely effective. It seems so simple, but yet I've never seen anything like it before...at least not with an adorable three year old in it. The sad thing is that that WAS a day in the life of the average American. Congress needs to act.

This is so cute! I agree with jesus fish, this is probably going to be very effective. It persuaded me!

I don't think that it was that persuasive. I agree with what she says, but you're all acting as though just because they have a three year old child telling everyone this that people will somehow agree. People may think that it's cute, but I'm pretty sure that most of America isn't as susceptible as to believe anything that comes out of a young child's mouth.

I do think this ad will be effective. Once his daughter has caught people's attention, they'll listen to the issue at hand & their opinion on this subject could possibly be swayed depending on whether they agree with what she is saying, or just think she's plain adorable.
