Myth Analysis
The Burger King commercial clearly uses the myth that some foods are masculine or feminine. There are many male characters singing about being hungry and how "chick food" isn't satisfying to a man's stomach. Small portions, tofu, and quishe only subdue a woman's hunger needs. Meat then becomes "man food." So only meat can provide the satisfaction these big strong men are looking for.

Race ads
Race is depicted in many commercials. It uses commonly known stereotypes to persuade their audience to use their product. Race ads can make you feel special by essentially having someone of a lower class serve you, or they can target an audience by saying this is what you need to be beautiful because beauty only is skin color. People can always relate to a product if they feel they have the same biased view.
Patriotism ads
Patriotism reaches out to most Americans, especially the middle and lower classes. There is an element of hope and sense of belonging to something great, which makes you proud to support this candidate if this is what they believe. These ads unify the diverse people of this country with the same hope of putting a certain candidate in office.
