what would brian boyko have to say about all this

Full Disclosure: I am a paid consultant for the Draft Biden PAC.


Actually, I thought it was sub-par, and I make viral videos for a living, including some political commercials and online announcement videos.

The video is 2:15. She doesn't even show up until 1:30. The first 90 seconds show a bunch of smiling people - 80% smiling women, I happen to notice - and not much else.

As a TV ad, maybe this would work. Maybe even as a convention ad. But online, you don't want to waste anyone's time. Think about it- what do all the viral videos you've seen have in common? They get right into the start.

Does anyone want to go and watch that a second time? Or even share it with their friends? Would you even have known about it if it wasn't HRC's announcment video?

As for the content, it is slickly produced, and it's clear that the video is targeting her strong demographics - women, Hispanics, and blue-collar manufacturing industry. But the video was SO full of "smiling people" and so slickly produced, and so well... like every other political ad you've ever seen except it somehow says even less despite taking five times the amount of time... that I'm wondering if this won't backfire. It didn't say anything other than: "See! I'm Hillary Clinton! I'm a woman! Like you! And I'm running for President!"

Look, I obviously have a dog in the fight here. Only Ted Cruz seems to be worse than Hillary Clinton on the BIG issue - the undue influence of money in politics which is grinding everything in Washington to a dead-halt. So take my words with a grain of salt. but I suspect that if she continues to run her campaign on platitudes, she'll get trounced in either the general election or in the primary.
