obama-pepsi-1-200.jpgOkay folks, this new Pepsi ad campaign is gonna make history! I see a kind of slice-of-life commercial, where some big-name spokesman goes into a diner and talks to people about thirst-quenching goodness.

He says, you know, something like, “Is it hot enough for you folks? On a day like this, nothing beats the refreshing taste of an ice-cold Pepsi!

Then the woman says, “I love Pepsi from a bottle, but does it come any other way?”

And then the spokesman says, “YES, WE have a CAN!”

Now, who can we get for an ad like that?
