RED, WHITE, BLUE AND BUDLIGHT PUMPING THROUGH MY VEINS !
Poker, Nascar, Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue and stadiums filled with more screaming football fans and floods of light and life pouring in then lady liberty herself could imagine. What could possibly be more american than all of this? How about a bunch of rappers sitting around calling each other just to say "wazzaaaaaaaaahh..?" or a class full of a mass mixture of cultures fighting to become legal american citizens. It could be very difficult to find an icon that could represent the american while encompasing all of this culture, but I believe I have found it in Budweiser. Last night, I decided to ask my dad his thoughts on american icons and all he had to offer was Elvis and Bud Light.
I thought about it some more and after hacking through my mom's internet blocks I reached the Bud Light web site. The stunning realization I came to find was that not only is Budweiser involved with all of the redblood white american stereo-types but it includes it self in the communities of many other cultures and minorities. The clearest representations of this are in the budlight commercials. One commercial in particular, opens with a group of immigrants are sitting in a citizenship class and learning how to ask for a budlight from Atlanta to L.A.
In my mind this is perfectly invades all aspects of american life.
