Honoring Super Tuesday

While waiting for more results from this tight Super Tuesday (my friends outside the US, you have no idea how complex in the name of complexity is all this process!) lets watch a bit of history.

Take a look at this ad from the 60's. While it may not be creative for its content, it is surprising nevertheless. Yes, is Jackie, and yes, she is speaking (reading?) in Spanish, campaigning for her husband!



Her Spanish may not be really fluent, but... who else was (in 1960!) addressing the Hispanic voters IN Spanish?
