Super Bowl commercial

[Hardcast416taylor]

The best commercial I thought that was aired on the Super Bowl was by Dodge/Chrysler. "God made a Farmer", narrated by Paul Harvey, made a lot of sense and wasn`t pushing a product.Robert

Great commercial. Paul Harvey was the best.

[Whiterabbit]

The best.

The Bud Clydesdale's was an emotional one. The girls were gurgling.......

Paul Harvey was the truth.........

[rockrat]

Liked them both. Having 1000 hours or so on a tractor, I can relate. Little brother was a farmer. Budweiser one was good, though I missed the first part of it. Sister lives about a mile away from where they used to have the Clydesdales in Colorado, and knew the people that took care of them.

[DxieLandMan]

That was the best commercial of all.

[Echo]

Really held one's attention- couldn't figure out the sponsor until the end. Just great...

[429421Cowboy]

Yep, that was an awesome commercial, I sure do miss Paul Harvey at the noon hour working everyday.

[reloaderman]

Agreed!

[Alstep]

Sure miss Paul Harvey, he was old America at it's best. A great commercial. Most people have no idea what it takes to produce food, and could care less.

The Clydesdales were super, but the Paul Harvey "God Made a Farmer" made me choke up! I thought I had heard about all of Paul Harvey's shows, but that one was new to me, and it was great! Yeah, I agree, I really miss Paul Harvey.

I still remember when Paul Harvey had been told the security at the OLD Aargon nuclear lab was almost non existent.

Paul got in his car and drove out to the lab. He took photos and returned to his station after having the film developed to prove all he said was true.

Was there a lot of talk about that broadcast?

Well over 60 years later and I still have not forgot.

R I P Mr Harvey you were one of the few real reporters that actually checked out stuff before you reported it.

[backroad]

The best for sure. Commercial and man! listened to him for most of my life.

[reloader28]

I only watched about 15 minutes of the game, but it was that part.
It was a great commercial and the 2 guys at work said it was the best of the game.
I was actually going to see if I could find it on you tube tonight.

[DIRT Farmer]

Just proves that when you have a great message people will look for the sponser. Hope they sell a lot of trucks from it.

[cylinderman]

Paul Harvey will always be remembered. When you heard that voice you knew it was time to listen.

A friend sent me an e-mail about a 1965 Paul Harvery recording entitled "If I were the Devil". It bacisally foretold everything that is, or has, happened to this nation if the Devil wished to make it disappear or be destroyed from within by our own leaders. Truly a scary narration by Harvey.Robert

And on the 8th day, God looked down on his planned paradise and said, "I need a caretaker." So God made a farmer.

God said, "I need somebody willing to get up before dawn, milk cows, work all day in the fields, milk cows again, eat supper and then go to town and stay past midnight at a meeting of the school board." So God made a farmer.

"I need somebody with arms strong enough to rustle a calf and yet gentle enough to deliver his own grandchild. Somebody to call hogs, tame cantankerous machinery, come home hungry, have to wait lunch until his wife's done feeding visiting ladies and tell the ladies to be sure and come back real soon -- and mean it." So God made a farmer.

God said, "I need somebody willing to sit up all night with a newborn colt. And watch it die. Then dry his eyes and say, 'Maybe next year.' I need somebody who can shape an ax handle from a persimmon sprout, shoe a horse with a hunk of car tire, who can make harness out of haywire, feed sacks and shoe scraps. And who, planting time and harvest season, will finish his forty-hour week by Tuesday noon, then, pain'n from 'tractor back,' put in another seventy-two hours." So God made a farmer.

God had to have somebody willing to ride the ruts at double speed to get the hay in ahead of the rain clouds and yet stop in mid-field and race to help when he sees the first smoke from a neighbor's place. So God made a farmer.

God said, "I need somebody strong enough to clear trees and heave bails, yet gentle enough to tame lambs and wean pigs and tend the pink-combed pullets, who will stop his mower for an hour to splint the broken leg of a meadow lark. It had to be somebody who'd plow deep and straight and not cut corners. Somebody to seed, weed, feed, breed and rake and disc and plow and plant and tie the fleece and strain the milk and replenish the self-feeder and finish a hard week's work with a five-mile drive to church.

"Somebody who'd bale a family together with the soft strong bonds of sharing, who would laugh and then sigh, and then reply, with smiling eyes, when his son says he wants to spend his life 'doing what dad does.'" So God made a farmer.

Sean Hannity played that tape last night.

Then he went on to say that THE MUSEUM OF BROADCAST COMMUNICATIONS has a complete collection of the Paul Harvey shows available.
