Sarah Silverman says Nana and Papa in Florida screwed up the 2000 election that cost Al Gore the presidency.

In her [mock PSA](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/thoughts-prayers-toilet-paper), Silverman reminds viewers that Jews are liberal. She wants voters to schlep to Florida to visit their grandparents and convince them to vote for Obama in 2008.

**Implications** - Though this video may be a very unconventional approach to politics, it is sure to reach the young demographic it seeks to. The [youth vote](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/election-tool) is an important one in today's society, and the [Barack Obama campaign](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-friendship-bus) seems to tackle the task of attracting youth in an effective way. This can serve as a case study for all companies looking to target the youth.
