Saw my first commercial for the Obama cell phone today.
I had heard about it, but I didn't know if they had them around here. I was eating lunch and turned on the news and they had a commercial for it. Basically it is a free cell phone that comes with 250 free minutes and 250 free text messages per month. In order to qualify you have to be on medicaid, food stamps or other forms of assistance. They mentioned several things that could qualify you, but I can't remember them now.
The best part of the commercial is that the graphics and the voice over guy present it as an emergency phone so you can stay in touch with friends and family etc. They have an actor though who walks onto the screen, holds up the phone and with joy in his voice announces how he can now text his friends and keep up on all the latest information.
It was very interesting.
