TV Ad: Number 2

Barack Obama: Need Education

http://origin.barackobama.com/tv/advertisements/
(Sorry! This does NOT take you directly to the Ad! Scroll down on the right hand side bar to get to: Barack Obama-Need Education)

This video shows a woman that has a job working in a power plant. She worked the same job as men in the power company for 20 years before she discovered she was paid 40% less. It showed that McCain had opposed a law for woman to get equal pay for work. McCain dismissed the wage gap by saying "Woman just need education and training." But, the truth is women aren't working for kicks and giggles. Women should earn just as much money as men earn to survive. At the end of the video, the woman says that regarding the economy, John McCain is the one that needs the education. She and Obama in the ad are saying that Obama knows what the economy needs. The economy needs women to be treated just as equal as men. This video was paid for by Obama for America and approved by Barack Obama.

I can't believe McCain didn't support woman earning equal pay.
Excellent ad choice to display how ignorant McCain can actually be.
