Since I didn't watch the Super Bowl, I did not see the Dodge Ram ad. It was not until Monday morning that I heard the ad replayed on the radio. I must admit that Paul Harvey's voice and the images that it stirred from my childhood made me feel proud to be a farm girl. Now I've never been one's that real quick, but something about the whole thing didn't seem quite right, but I wasn't able to put my finger on it. The ad was put on the back burner of my mind until today.
While researching chlorinated water, of all things, I ran across this blog post that I believe you will find very interesting and, like me, helpful:
Sustainable Farmer’s Response to “God Made a Farmer” Superbowl Ad
This response made sense to me. This may be one of the reasons the ad did not sit quite right with me.
Plus, why would Big Auto want to glorify Small Ag? Just say'in.

Or how about the Monsanto ad that "thanks" the family farmer? It plays on PBS all the time and I nearly choke everytime I see it!
Hope you are well ;)
