Benjamin Franklin Viagra Ad (Joke/Proposed)

Over the Fourth of July Weekend, there's usually some news show that bandies about the issue of what our Founding Fathers would think about America today, as in would they be proud or disappointed, or impressed or repulsed, etc. Well, that got me talking about this with my sister, and she said that Benjamin Franklin would probably be impressed with Viagra, seeing as how he was always seeking some bedroom companionship well into his later years. And so that made me think it might make for a fun ad for Viagra to have the ghost of Benjamin Franklin come back to look upon our country today and comment upon the wonders we've developed, not the least of which (to him) is Viagra. And so he'd say something like: "Wow, what an accomplishment, allowing any gentleman to rise to any occasion at any age. Not that I would have needed it, you understand, but impressive just the same." Then we could see flashbacks to his sexytime antics in France during the Revolutionary War with all those bedazzled wig-wearing women from French high society. And then Mr. Franklin could conclude that this is one accomplishment that truly makes this current time period "stand out" in American history, and that it's nice to see that America is always finding new ways to try to make all men equal.
