Abortion is one of the most controversial issues in the United States today. In a 41 second video advertisement, sponsored by Catholicvote.org, begins the image of a fetus projected in an ultrasound screen with these words: "This child's future is a broken home. He will be abandoned by his father. His single mother will struggle to raise him. Despite the hardships he will endure, this child will become the 1st African-American President "(catholicvote.org) It featured a photo of president Obama and concludes, " Life. Imagine the potential " (catholicvote.org). The ad encourages pregnant women who want to abort a child to do otherwise, by featuring a fetus becoming the first black president in America's history. However, the ad only advertises saving the fetus life, but doesn't show how in one of a million that one particular fetus that the mother is carrying will become the next president. A mother who is not financially stable, or is experiencing some kind of violence, that will have an negative impact on the child and herself; she will need some kind of reassurance of success and well being for the child if she chooses not to abort. .
