Last week while my wife and I were walking through Center City Philadelphia, we encountered a driving preacher. And by driving preacher I mean literally a guy using a PA system strapped to the roof of his car to preach his message. We both remarked how it seemed kind of silly to be preaching this way since most people would only catch a snippet or two of his message before his car was out of earshot.
I think a better use of the speakers definitely would have been for getting out the vote, something where he'd be repeating one message over and over. Like the kind Goldie Wilson used when running for Mayor in Back to the Future. Or better yet the kind that The Blues Brothers used to get some promotion for their concert. I didn't seen any speakers mounted on cars for yesterday's election, but this week I saw something way cooler. A moving video billboard truck. I guess this is the new generation of mobile electioneering.
