Political advertising involves the use of advertising by politicians to bring their messages to the masses. These usually warn voters that the gates of Hell will open and demons will eat skin off their still-living victims if voters approve a bond issue for school playgrounds. In theory, political advertising could explain policy, inform citizens and connect people to their leaders. But theoretically, Bill Moyers could record a version of "Hips Don't Lie."

abstract
  • Political advertising involves the use of advertising by politicians to bring their messages to the masses. These usually warn voters that the gates of Hell will open and demons will eat skin off their still-living victims if voters approve a bond issue for school playgrounds. Promoting candidates with paraphernalia -- whether ribbons, flowers or condoms -- goes back to the Middle Ages. Peter de la Mare, the first speaker of the House of Commons, painted anti-monarchical slogans on the back of a sheep to win major democratic concessions from Richard II in 1377. Today, political advertising is a multibillion dollar industry, employing musicians who play ominous chords, photographers who take unflattering pictures and video artists who can make your saintly grandmother look like a meth-smoking, child-murdering Klan wizard. In theory, political advertising could explain policy, inform citizens and connect people to their leaders. But theoretically, Bill Moyers could record a version of "Hips Don't Lie."
