Our Brand Is Crisis Movie Trailer

admin — Wed, 07 Apr 2010 19:52:14 +0000

For decades, U.S. strategists-for-hire have been quietly molding the opinions of voters and the messages of candidates in elections from the Middle East to the South American jungle. With flabbergasting access to think sessions, media training and the making of smear campaigns, we watch how the consultants’ marketing strategies shape the relationship between a leader and his people. Our Brand is Crisis is an astounding look at one group’s campaign to elect the President of Bolivia and its earth-shattering aftermath.

Haig ‘08 – Sid Haig’s Official Presidential Campaign Speech

admin — Sat, 20 Mar 2010 17:16:42 +0000

Brought to you by The Eerie Horror Fest-

My Fellow Americans,

I would like to put yet another Internet rumor to rest by saying that I am in fact running for President of the United States. This is not a “PR stunt” or a “joke”, and I am not simply “pretending to run to politically rouse my demographic”. Nor am I running under the character name of Captain Spaulding. I, Sid Haig, am running for President. That is a fact.

I have stated in the past that my hopes of winning are slim at best, but the only way we the people can send a message to Washington DC is for me to get at least 1% of the vote, not to be taken as a “joke”. Treating this country as a joke is what got us where we are in the first place, isn’t it? It’s time to stop that.

We can do this, if you all register to vote and then write my name in as your choice for President. It’s very simple. Just write it in. That’s it.

An overwhelming number of you have said that you agree with my position on taxes, health care, immigration and all the rest of the many things that we find wrong with the way the current administration is handling things, and I appreciate that. But to take that fire and snuff it by just laughing it off is counterproductive and will change nothing for any of us Americans.

If any of you really agree and “would vote for me if I was really running”, then now’s your chance to make your voice heard, because this is 100% real.

I hope this clears up any misconceptions about my campaign.

Vote Sid Haig in 08′.

- Sid

In this speech, Sid gets tough with politics. Included are his viewpoints on immigration, earmarks, the economy, marijuana, the war, and global warming and more.

Peace Through Strength (1980 Political Commercial)

admin — Sat, 30 Jan 2010 08:43:09 +0000

Ronald Reagan’s television spots were not particularly artful. The centerpiece of the campaign was a conventional biographical ad tracing Reagan’s career and crediting him with reducing California’s deficit while lowering taxes. The ad’s main purpose was to show that Reagan—best known to the public as a movie actor—was also an effective governor.

The rest of Reagan’s ads were simple but effective variations on the central question he put to voters: “Are you better off today than you were four years ago?” A variety of attack ads reiterated the main problems of the Carter administration: high inflation and the hostage crisis. One spot,credited to “Democrats for Reagan,” included a clip of Ted Kennedy shouting, “No more Jimmy Carter!” during the primary campaign. An unusual negative spot featured Nancy Reagan lambasting Carter for his “vacillating” foreign policy. Though it is common for advertising to feature a candidate’s family members, spouses rarely appear in attack ads.

Reagan’s campaign took advantage of a loophole in federal financing laws designed to limit overall campaign spending. These laws placed a ceiling on the amount of money that could be contributed directly to a campaign, but they also permitted the creation of political action committees, independent groups whose expenditures in support of candidates were not counted against the spending limit. PACs spent a total of $12 million dollars on Reagan’s behalf, compared to less than $50,000 on Carter’s.
