    Of all the 2016 Super Bowl commercials, the commercial I have concluded the most effective is the Hyundai commercial with Kevin Hart. However, effective is a subjective word in this case, but the criteria used in my perspective of it is that the commercial created a connection with the viewer, was able to be memorable, and set itself apart as more than “just a product”. Through a mix of storytelling, playfulness, and outrageous acts; Hyundai was able to achieve and surpass those criteria. The first thing that many people, from peers to big companies, pointed out about the Hyundai commercial was Kevin Hart. Hart is an extremely recognizable star for his hilarious comedy and his playful personality.…

He also is shown as a responsible adult since he always returns the puppy to his rightful place after it escapes. Since the commercial has this view on the main character, the viewers idealize this man because he drinks Budweiser but also makes smart decisions as a responsible adult.

The primary audience for this kind of ad are people who emotionally vulnerable and…

    Population growth in the United States during the late 19th century proved to be a pivotal point for many Native Americans—they had to decide whether to conform to the very different lifestyle of the whites or isolate themselves from a rapidly advancing society.

In fact, half of the documents displayed the whites’ dubiousness for Native Americans. However, much to the delight of historians, the other half of the documents correctly asserted that Native Americans were capable of adaptation and modernization.…
