President Barack Obama's reelection campaign is out with a lengthy new ad (over seven minutes) titled "Forward."
Despite the title, here's what the ad actually looks at:
-- the state of the economy before Obama's presidency;
--the legislation passed since the start of his term;
--past criticisms Republicans and conservative media personalities have made against him;
--past accomplishments in the War on Terror;
And almost everything is written in past tense: "protected," "passed," "saved," "appointed," "invested," "ended," "liberated," etc.
Watch:
