Best Super Bowl Ad: Paul Harvey, "So God Made a Farmer"

| | TrackBacks (0)

Big thumbs up to Dodge for their two-minute-long Super Bowl ad featuring the inimitable voice of the late Paul Harvey: Beautiful words combined with beautiful pictures in tribute to the American farmer.

The speech was delivered to the Future Farmers of America in 1978 -- 35 years ago, and yet timeless. Warner Todd Huston has the full text of Paul Harvey's "So God Made a Farmer", along with the farms.com video from two years ago that first coupled this text with images of farmers.

MORE: Mediaite found the full version of the speech, which had been trimmed to fit the two-minute commercial length.

UPDATE 2019/10/13: Mediaite and Liberty News links are gone, but you can find the full audio of "So God Made a Farmer" on the American Rhetoric website, along with a transcript.
