HILLARY BRINGS THE MAGIC IN NEW SOUTH CAROLINA RADIO AD
(COLUMBIA) – Entrepreneur, former NBA basketball star and philanthropist Magic Johnson hit the Palmetto State airwaves today, sharing with South Carolinians why he believes we need a President with Hillary’s experience to make change real.
In the 60-scond radio ad, Johnson says that Hillary has the experience necessary to make real change in America. Johnson is an active supporter of the Democratic Party, and since his retirement from the L.A. Lakers, heads the Magic Johnson Foundation which supports programs for urban and African-American youth across the country. Johnson has campaigned with Hillary and Bill Clinton in Iowa, Nevada, California and across the country.
A complete transcript of the ad is included below.
JOHNSON: This is Magic Johnson. On the court and in life, successful leadership comes from hard work and experience. That’s why I’m endorsing Hillary Clinton for President. We have great candidates this year, but I believe only Hillary is a proven leader, with 35 years’ experience dealing with challenges facing America. Are you looking for better jobs, universal health care, better treatment for veterans, opportunities for your children? Then you want Hillary Clinton for President. My rookie year, we won our first game on a last second shot. I was so hyped. But the captain of my team said, “take it easy rookie, it’s a long season, it’s a long road to the championship.” He was right. Winning comes from years of hard work and preparation. Whether it’s winning championships or a President who can lead us back to greatness, I’ll always want the most prepared and experienced person leading my team. That’s why I’m asking you to join me in voting for Hillary Clinton for President.
HILLARY: I’m Hillary Clinton, candidate for president, and I approve this message.
ANNCR: Paid for by Hillary Clinton for President.
