Today’s Video: Orange drink!

After spending countless times replaying and laughing at the following 1980s Venezuelan (I think) ad for Kool-Aid, three things stick out in my mind:

1. The terribly fluorescent clothing won by the kids as well as the bike helmets and gloves. (Safety first!)
2. Their comically overjoyed (too much sugar?) reaction to the appearance of Señor Kool-Aid.
3. How his baritone voice inexplicably gives way to a castrato-like falsetto reminiscent of Morrissey signing the last thirty seconds of The Smiths’ “What Difference Does It Make?”

Speaking of everyone’s favorite fey English cult hero, do you know which U.S. presidential candidate he supports? (Hint: It isn’t Mike Huckabee).
