Tennessee has had a few entertaining political ads, but the ads here have been nothing compared to the ones running in Alabama!
First, remember this guy? He’s from Alabama.
And sure, his ad is humorous with a priceless ending…
…but that ad does not come close to comparing to these creative political gems from congressional candidate Rick Barber! He’s Alabama’s Tea Party activist. And he’s promising to take YOUR fight to Washington D.C.!
According to Rick’s website, he’s a product of the South. He spent his childhood in Arlington, Texas in a modest home with a Christian upbringing.
And in this first ad, Rick drops a bomb of angst and crinkled eyebrows on Islamic JEE-HAWD.
In this next ad, Rick meets with three influential dead Americans and asks them to join his campaign!
And lastly, in this ad Rick tells Abraham Lincoln what’s what!
Watching these ads, I’m inclined to believe that…
1) Rick was/is a Promise Keeper (Does Promise Keepers still exist?)
2) Rick hates maple trees because they make him think of Canada
3) Rick’s wife, when Rick’s not looking, rolls her eyes at him
4) Rick really thinks that, if Ben Franklin were alive, they would be leading a church small group together
5) Rick eats beef jerky
