Simple is Good: Jared Huffman

This is an ad for Jared Huffman who is running for the open 2nd Congressional district in California. This ad stood out to me for it's simplicity. He is standing in front of a beautiful Harbor which plays into "home-style" campaigning. There aren't any gimmicks, just him, a clean blue shirt and the harbor. He talks about the importance of job creation, ending wars and reducing the deficit. The "zooming in" from 0:17-0:23 seconds and 5:01-5:08 is nice dramatic touch.
