The underlying issue talked about in this ad is the alleged economy crisis. According to the ad, the issues in need of being resolved consist of; banks foreclosing, job losses, high gas prices, and high taxes. John McCain's advertisement tries to prove that only McCain and Palin have the ability to lift the nation out of it's current state of 'crisis'. The implied issue is the issue of votes in America. It is implies that John McCain tries to persuade the voters of America into giving their vote to the McCain and Palin campaign. This is a positive ad because it provides positive words, such as ‘Proven reformers’, ‘Leadership’ and ‘Experience’. All of these things make the viewers believe that Palin and McCain are able to handle being in charge of our country. Previous evidence shows that they are both proven reformers, if you look at their political record of office. The words 'Leadership' and 'Experience' is meant to reflect positively on the insecure issues that they claim they are about to change. The John McCain Crisis ad is completely accurate in its facts about the economic recession. For example the ad mentions the growing problem of high gas prices and that is accurate because in the U.S right now the gallon of gas is worth $3.63. This price is not very high compared to what it was a few months ago, but this still affects those who have v8 and v12 cars. Also, the ad talks about the hundreds of thousands of foreclosures that are happening in the U.S. According to statistics just in California there are about 175,000 foerclosures occuring in this month. Finally the ad mentions the many job losses that have occured, and just in this last year 66,000 jobs have been lost.
