Super Bowl Is As American As .... ?
By number of viewers, the Super Bowl is a cross section of America. From the faces in the ads, not always. The first video below challenges us to rethink who we are as a nation.

See if you can spot the difference. And then help to spread this discussion by emailing, tweeting and sharing these videos, using the links below. -- video moderator

'Farmer' Super Bowl ad sponsored by Dodge.
