Wonder how many of these kids have left the city?

A couple of years ago I think it was Fiat that paid for a Super Bowl commercial with Paul Harvey narrating "God made a Farmer". That was well done. Sent a message to tens of millions.
There was only their products in the commercial, Case IH farm equipment and Ram trucks.

Or maybe the kids and their teachers thought it up and the organic movement jumped on it. Not a lot of complexity in the story after all. Gee whizzakers, they only used the word "organic" once in their little song. Brings a tear to my eye each time I watch it as these children are standing up for what they believe.... Good on em.

I don't remember that commercial making any statements about non-Fiat products. They stuck to their own knitting, and that is exactly my point.

Rkaiser if you think that ditty was not dreamt up in a ad agency office, you are gullable.

"Children standing up for what they believe". Hardly. Children are malleable and they would have never thought this stuff up themselves.

Everybody back into their bubble now!!! Everyone put on your self contained breathing apparatus. Don't forget the hand sanitizer. Walk everywhere you go. Enjoy your hundred mile diet. And the infamous tinfoil hat so the government can't read your mind.....

Coleville, i see your point. Make others look bad so they can look good.

If you look at this from a strictly advertising prospective, I also see your point Coleville.

However, the whole chem farming issue goes a lot further than promoting one product over another.

I feel that people have the right to speak out about what they feel to be right and see authenticity in these children. If you want to think they are all simply paid actors, that is your prospective, and I will not call you a conspiracy theorist.

As one other poster pointed out, you could fight back with a more morally acceptable ad in our world of propaganda and hire children promoting the good in chemicals and pesticides and cages if that is your true belief. You could hire some sickly starving children to play the part of those who can not eat if we don't use chemicals and GMO's?
