Another Creepy Uncle Sam


Here it is folks, Another Creepy Uncle Sam ad straight the GOP! Since republicans have lost their battle with Obama Care, the next step is to get everyone to opt out. They are specifically targeting young people. The main theme being that before young people had a choice in healthcare plans and now we only have one. Throughout the ad they are in a dimly lit hospital with terrible hospital sounds. While the camera is panning through the hospital you see a few patients and they all look miserable and sick. Its almost as if this ad is showing you’re the future of what Obama Care will look like. The narrator is a young girl, which is another hint of their choice of audience. She talks about the ineffectiveness of the website and she speaks mostly about “our generation” having no choice in which health care plan we wanted. She makes you want to join her in this bandwagon speech about how everyone else is upset about Obama Care so why aren’t you?
The camera pans throughout the hospital as the buzzing noises get louder and louder. At the end of the ad you see creepy Uncle Sam with the operation board game and huge grin on his face. The narrator asks you to opt out of Obama Care because “our health care is NOT a game”. These ads are about scaring America’s young adults into opting out of Obama Care. The ads provide no information or facts about Obama Care or what will happen if you opt out. It is a strictly entertaining ad that is meant to make Obama Care a joke. It is also interesting that they call it Obama Care instead of the Affordable Care Act. I think it’s more important for the GOP to associate the audience with Obama rather than the Affordable Care Act. Watch this Video HERE!
