Nader to don panda suit, cast ‘amorous glances’ at female panda?

September 18th, 2008 · 10 Comments

In his new ad, Ralph Nader talks to a pet bird and ponders the idea of donning a panda suit in order to increase his media exposure. It worked for Hurricane Bear, says this CNN spot.

Watch the ad below.

    Phew, I thought I was the only one who saw it.

    A CNN anchor reporting on CNN and others not reporting…

    That’s very, uh, Gravellish.

    But having watched the video, not quite as hallucinogen-inspired as some of Gravel’s videos.

    That said, I’m probably voting for Nader.

    Nader vs. Dignity.

    I really like it, it would make a great TV ad. People would watch it because of the “what the hell” aspect. It’s nearly as good as Perot and his charts.

    Dear Mr Nader-

    I have a special panda suit that looks like the real mccoy- http://www.animatronicbear.com/pandasuit.html – let me know if I can lend a paw to your campaign!

    Nader talks about the issues, makes videos about the issues, but what does CNN cover? Him talking to a parrot about a panda suit.

    Maybe he should debate the parrots this time. That would be some great symbolism.

    As for CNN, this is pathetic. There are two wars that the US is in right now, the economy is crashing, the federal debt is approaching $10 trillion, and the election is being stolen, but they report on the world’s shortest man standing with a woman with long legs!

    Nader talks about the issues, makes videos about the issues, but what does CNN cover? Him talking to a parrot about a panda suit.

    And they responded to his point by doing exactly what he said they’d do.

    Only CNN…

    You know, I’ve heard they have the Best Political Team on Television?

    Hey, just look at it this way – Nader found his intellectual equal…
