Is Bush Better for Beer Drinkers?
Creators Syndicate, Terence Jeffrey, CA, September 29, 2004 American beer drinkers might be interested in learning that August A. Busch IV, Budweiser heir and John Kerry supporter, signed a full-page ad for the Democratic National Committee that ran Sept. 23rd in The New York Times. I suspect many Bud drinkers may not have seen it. The ad did not feature talking frogs, and the Democrats are not broadcasting a TV version during NFL games. It ran opposite the “World Briefing” on page A13 — not prime space for the beer-drinking demographic. Headlined “America Needs New Leadership,” the ad, without expressly naming either candidate, argued that President Bush is bad for business and that John Kerry would be better.
