Script of "America First" (TV)

ANNOUNCER [v/o]: 810 schools, 91 health care clinics, 1,047 roads and bridges -- we’re building for the future. Iraq's future.

Only one candidate opposed this war from the start: Barack Obama. He'll bring our brave men and women home and invest here in health care, education and infrastructure.

Barack Obama. Put America first again.
