Transcription
You've heard of ADA, Americans for Democratic Action. Did you know that Hubert Humphrey, who could be a heartbeat away from the presidency, organized the ADA in 1947 and has been its vice president ever since? Humphrey and the ADA want to... Socialize the United States. Impose wage, price, and rent controls. Aid communist countries. Welcome Castro into the Alliance for Progress. Turn the Panama Canal over to the United Nations. Abolish the House Committee on Un-American Activities. The ADA is so dangerous that Governor John Connolly went on statewide television to warn Texas voters. He said, quote... The left-wing radical ADA and their cohorts stand for everything Texas doesn't. Unquote. Never before has the extreme left been so close to the presidency. Reject Hubert Humphrey and the ADA. Vote for Barry Goldwater. In your heart, you know he's right. In your heart, you know he's right.
