Herman Cain’s Amazing Campaign Ad

That really is Mark Block, chief of staff/CEO of Herman Cain’s presidential campaign, talking up the candidate and smoking a cigarette. That really is Cain taking 10 seconds to smile at the end.

Feels like a parody of the now somewhat-popular “campaign manager gives briefing” ad, right? Only difference: This is amazing.

You know what else is real? This.

UPDATE: The video is boiled down to its essence.

UPDATE II: You want the full video for “I Am America,” the song heard in the ad? Fine.
