If you want more people to count, the idea is to get more people to listen. Politics is all about promoting your candidacy.

There are somethings more important than politics and self.

And Fred knows it.

..it's not about me

Not in such a close political campaign. And it is about Fred.

I, for one, am sick to the gills of political expediency.

It's a blessing to see someone, who is running for office, promoting principle over politics, and actually doing it in a selfless, principled manner.

Fred Thompson couldn't have done anything more effective, to promote his candidacy, in my estimation.

Perhaps it's naive of me to believe it, but I think, when all was said and done about this ad, Fred Thompson made the final decision. The choice of the presentation would speak volumes about the person who presented it. He would want it to reflect his thoughts and beliefs. I believe it did so in a very positive light.
