![["The 1988 political TV ad for Mitch Irwin portrays his opponent, Bob Davis, as closely aligned with defense contractors and special interests. Featuring various scenes where Davis appears with defense industry logos, the ad contrasts this with clips of Irwin engaging with local communities, emphasizing his commitment to local values and interests over those of foreign and corporate entities. Irwin's message to prioritize local issues over external influences is highlighted throughout the campaign ad."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Julian%20P.%20Kanter%20Political%20Commercials%20Collection,%201942-2016/United%20States%20House%20of%20Representatives%20Offices%20Campaign%20Ads,%201963-2016/P-1079-44961_thumbnail.jpg "1988 - U.S. House of Representatives - Mitch - Irwin - \"Us First (Upper Peninsula)\"")
