Johnson's campaign.
Though only aired once (by the campaign), it is considered a factor in Johnson's landslide victory over Barry Goldwater and an important turning point in political and advertising history.
It was created by Tony Schwartz of Doyle Dane Bernbach. It remains one of the most controversial political advertisements ever made.

I remember a similar one of a little girl licking an ice cream cone. A voice over tells of all the bad things about radioactive fallout, then at the end the nuke goes off.
