Hillary Clinton’s campaign introduced its closing argument Wednesday with two new TV ads, including one enlisting help from one of the most iconic voices in show business: Morgan Freeman.
The first one-minute spot, “Example,” contrasts Clinton and Donald Trump’s track records, asking voters who they would want in control of the country and describing Trump as a “loose cannon.”
“Our children. They look up to us. What we value, how we treat others. And now they’re looking to see what kind of leaders we choose, who we’ll entrust our country and their future to,” Freeman says in the ad. “Will it be the one respected around the world? Or the one who frightens our allies and emboldens our enemies?”
Freeman has worked with the Clinton campaign in the past, narrating several other ads and providing his voice for a video recapping Clinton’s life at the Democratic National Convention this year.
The second, 30-second ad, “Families First,” focuses on Clinton’s past work with families and children and positions them as a focus of a Clinton presidency.
“Kids and families have been the passion of my life and they will be the heart of my presidency,” Clinton says in the ad.
The ads will air as part of an already existing ad buy in the battleground states of Florida, Iowa, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Ohio and Pennsylvania along with national cable, according to the campaign.
Watch the ads below:
When you have the “Voice of God” endorsing you, you’re doing pretty damn well, Madame President…
I hope she doesn’t wear that at any campaign stops in Ohio. King James can only do so much.
Is there anything more soothing and convincing than Morgan Freeman’s voice?
They guy is verbal liquid butter
Man, I like the man. But his voice is so overused in political ads, and others, I think they should retire it. It’s become a cliché.
