A new ad released today by the presidential campaign of Illinois Sen. Barack Obama features footage from the candidate's speech at the Iowa Democratic Party's Jefferson-Jackson Dinner, held in November.
In the ad, Obama discusses his desire to move past the "textbook" campaign that pits "red" against "blue" America.
The minute-long television ad begins airing in Iowa today and, according to the campaign, may be aired elsewhere in the future.
The video of the full 20-minute speech made by Obama at the Democratic event is available on YouTube.
