(1,947 posts)with an ad suggesting she is responsible for hundreds of dead and maimed children in Yemen because she approved the sale of cluster bombs--on which there was a UN ban whose passage of which hoped to avert. A negative ad would woud link these atrocities to her votes against banning the sale of land mines and cluster bombs, her Senate speech about the need for cluster bombs, the political donations she received from Textron and other munitions manufacturers, the contributions the Clinton Foundation received from various countries who wanted to purchase arms that had to be approved by the Secretary of State, the ties she had with the lobbyists representing various Arab and other countries who purchased arms. Then I'd pan across the hospital room filled with maimed Yemeni children and ask "Does Hillary think these children should be able to sue the bomb manufacturer, her donor, Textron? Or is her outrage over the massacre of children limited to those who have parents who can vote?
Now, if this were a Republican ad, it would probably be narrated with a scary voice and end with something like "Tell Hillary to give back the blood money from Textron." And they probably dive deeper into her ties with various Arab countries with some racists images and suggestions that they might be terrorists.
