The Girl on 3am advert is just an opportunist. Models must keep their opinions to themselves.

Its scary to think that people sell their pictures and visuals to get paid for them and licence them to be used by anyone, and then when they run out of cash, they cash in again by criticising the producs they were hired to promote. I know that the filming took place years ago and the actress/model was a minor then, but hey, she was paid so she can keep her ill informed opinions to herself. Now she jumps onto this Obama wave so as to reintroduce herself in the modeling world. That was a cheap stunt.

One wonders why a former child model should not have the right to comment on an election while celebrities and pundits across the political spectrum come out of the woodwork to endorse candidates despite often having a suspect understanding of the actual issues.
The use of her image in the advert made her a minor celebrity, and so the platform she has to endorse Obama is actually a fault of the Clinton campaign in using old stock images, rather than actually put together a new advert.
As for your accusations that she has 'jumped onto this Obama wave' I'm afraid your understanding of her political ideology is as ill informed as you accuse hers to be. She has been an active campaigner for Barack Obama for a while -she was an Obama campaigner in the Washington caucus which was well before the 3am advert made the media interested in her. I can also find nothing that suggests that this girl is currently attempting to use this fame to launch a new modeling career either.
Put simply - if the Clinton campaign had bothered to pay for a current child's image to abuse in their negative campaigning, then it wouldn't have haunted them in this manner.

The bottom line is that she is opportunistic. As an american she should have just voted for her candidate and not denounce the other just because her modeling career needs some boost.

I repeat that I cannot find anything on the internet to support your accusations that this girl is an opportunist trying to restart a modeling career, in fact I cannot find any evidence anywhere that she either still has or wants a modeling career.
I have little more to add to my first post - your defamation of her character is based on no actual evidence and on your own ignorance of her political ideology.

Thanx yngster, I may need the luck, but what they need is to read a little bit and stop trying to win arguments by tapping on emotions and block votes.

Pat, I happen to read quite a lot, and prefer to win my arguments by actually putting forth an argument based on defensible facts.

I agree with tickers she was active in the campaign way before that 3am ad.
