Not_Alex
Not Alex, also referred to as Baby Alex, is a political television advertisement which aired during the 2008 U.S. Presidential campaign. Created by MoveOn.org, the ad features a mother holding her baby, Alex, and telling the camera that John McCain couldn't have him as a future soldier in the Iraq War, making a reference to McCain's suggestion that the American presence in Iraq could last 100 years.[1][2] MoveOn paid US$500,000 to run the ad for a week beginning 18 June in Michigan, Ohio and Wisconsin, and on cable channels CNN and MSNBC.[3] The American Federation of State, County, and Municipal Employees helped finance the ad.[1]
