Content
The One combines excerpts of Obama speeches with images of ecstatic crowds and a clip of Charlton Heston as Moses parting the Red Sea. A male voice-over mocks the candidate in Biblical language, concluding, "Barack Obama may be The One, but is he ready to lead?"YouTube: The One (Time: 1:14) -
Response
The following is a statement concerning The One by Hari Sevugan, an Obama campaign spokesman.- "It’s downright sad that on a day when we learned that 51,000 Americans lost their jobs, a candidate for the presidency is spending all of his time and the powerful platform he has on these sorts of juvenile antics. Senator McCain can keep telling everyone how 'proud' he is of these political stunts which even his Republican friends and advisors have called 'childish,' but Barack Obama will continue talking about his plan to jumpstart our economy by giving working families $1,000 of immediate relief."The Caucus: McCain Ad Mocks Obama as 'The One' (August 1, 2008)
