Advertisements literally mean to present a person or thing that shows how good or effective something is. It is presented to the public to help sell a product or to make an announcement. Therefore, when electoral candidates used this strategy as part of their campaign they are like selling themselves. They are comparable to a product in this case. Some people buy products that they want while others buy products that they really need. On the other hand, politics is the practice and theory of influencing other people. It came from Greek word “politikos” which means “of, for, or relating to citizens” (Wikipedia. Politicians most especially the presidential candidates run for their positions for their own reasons.

The change in candidate evaluations is determined by many factors, such as the channel on which the ad is shown (Kaid,2002; Kaid & Postelnicu,2005) or the content of the advertisement.

Voters’ perceptions of the political process in general and their political behavior (Ansolabehere & Iyengar,1995; Kaid et al.,1992; Lemert, Wanta,& Lee,1999) might be affected by the way they perceive an advertisement. “Therefore, we expected political advertising to have a strong impact on young voters’ evaluations of the candidate, because this group of voters traditionally has lower levels of interest and involvement than older voters” (Kaid, Postelnicu, Landreville, Yun, & LeGrange,

Advertising is a strategy used to pull in someone’s consideration of a product or item of sale. Publicizing is a critical and basic method for organizations to make themselves known in the advertising game. Most ads can be found in daily papers, magazines, bulletin, transports, web, and on the radio, flyers, pamphlets or publications. Basically here is the point of an ad. Imagine yourself walking down the street and you spot a hundred-dollar bill on the ground, so of course you bend to pick it up, but it begins to drift away.
However, the 2016 election was not this harsh in the beginning. The candidates focused more on boosting themselves up, rather than beating the other candidates down.

This week’s lesson gave me more clarity on the-the Electoral College. It was confusing at first to hear that the popular vote does not win an election. Bush lost the popular votes, but won the electoral vote in 2000, cleared by the Supreme Court (POLS201). I think it is better for the candidate to worry about the crucial electoral votes than the popular votes.

This principle of advertisement applies to American politics where candidates are essentially competing products which must be advertised.

It just so happens that most of the mainstream media outlets in the United States have a decidedly left-wing stance.
One is a Chase and Sandborn’s coffee advertisement that depicted a rich family drinking the coffee produced by the company (Marchand 212). Another example used was an Ivory Soap commercial (Marchand 212). A final example mentioned was the C.F. Church Manufacturing Company and the toilet seat that was advertised for all consumers (Marchand 212). Although Marcand hardly goes into as much detail with these examples as he did with the Cream of Wheat commercial, the same definition he provided applies. Everyone of the commercial examples that Marchand provides had one thing in common: they used the appeal of Democracy of Goods to connect with the consumers.
Advertisements are displayed differently around the world, no equality in brands, and brainwashing humans. There are distinct types of commercial depending where you live. It depends on the culture and their needs. For instance, Taco Bell 's advertisements in the United States compare to the
America is regarded highly in the world, due to its economic, political, as well as social development. As countries mature politically, voter turnout is expected to increase. This is the case for most industrialized nations who experience an average voter turnout above 70%. However, it is troubling to see that America still lags below 60% in voter turnout. Viewed as one of the healthiest democracies in the world, the United States is always referred to as an example that other countries should follow.
Political ads are a way to persuade you to vote for one political party or the other. Every 4 years, there is an election between democrats and republicans that will help decide the next president of the United States. These campaigns between the democrats and the republicans are the strategies candidates use to win your vote. During the election season, there is many speeches made by both the people who are running for president. Debates between the two sides can sway your vote to one side or the other depending on what the candidates say.

In politics, rights are the protections and privileges legally granted to citizens by the governments. In a democracy, certain rights are considered to be inalienable, and not subject to grant or withdrawal by government. Regarding abortion law, the political debate usually surrounds a right to privacy, and when or how a government may regulate abortion. There is abundant debate regarding the extent of abortion regulation.
Advertising is a form of propaganda that plays a huge role in society and is readily apparent to anyone who watches television, listens to the radio, reads newspapers, uses the internet, or looks at a billboard on the streets and buses. The effects of advertising begin the moment a child asks for a new toy seen on TV or a middle aged man decides he needs that new car. It is negatively impacting our society. To begin, the companies which make advertisements know who to aim their ads at and how to emotionally connect their product with a viewer. For example, “Studies conducted for Seventeen magazine have shown that 29 percent of adult women still buy the brand of coffee they preferred as a teenager, and 41 percent buy the same brand of mascara”
