Spot de campaña del candidato independiente George Wallace. La estrategia de Wallace era sencilla: aparecer la mayor cantidad de veces, él directamente, ablando de sus ideas conservadoras radicales con el fin de generar polémica y aumentar su nivel de conocimiento. El gobernador de Alabama apareció en todos sus anuncios hablando desde el mismo podio, manteniendo, así, una curiosa disciplina visual. Wallace impulsaba la guerra frontal a la delincuencia y un bombardeo masivo a Vietnam para terminar de una vez por todas con el problema. El spot que vemos tiene el siguiente guión en ingles: NARRADOR: Governor George C. Wallace. WALLACE: Today we are involved in Southeast Asia with 500,000 American servicemen who are totally committed at this very moment between life and death. I sincerely hope and pray that our political and diplomatic negotiations in Paris are successful, and that an honorable peace can be achieved through negotiations, and the American servicemen brought home. At this time, there is some doubt about the success of our political and diplomatic negotiations in Paris. And if they fail, and as your president, I shall call upon the joint chiefs of staff to bring a military conclusion to the war with conventional weapons, and bring the American servicemen home. And turn the security of South Vietnam over strictly to the South Vietnamese armed forces. NARRADOR: Wallace has the courage to stand up for America. Give him your support. TEXTO EN PANTALLA: Governor Wallace for President.
