A new video released by House Speaker Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) 56% has reporters chattering about whether or not it serves as a subtle campaign ad, as his supporters continue to whisper his name as a potential Republican presidential nominee in a brokered convention.
The video features footage from Ryan’s speech calling for a better brand of politics. That talk implicitly criticized Donald Trump’s brand of campaigning.
The video is the latest of a series of web videos produced by his digital communications director Caleb Smith to highlight the Ryan brand of politics.
Smith’s video includes multiple camera angles, a soundtrack, and shots of the audience reaction to the speech, which quickly drew praise from the digital community for its slick production. The video is also raising questions among journalists.
“The first ad of the Ryan 2016 campaign?” asked ABC’s Jonathan Karl on Twitter, sharing the video.
“Sweet campaign ad from the Ryan team,” noted Jacqueline Alemany from CBS News on Twitter after she saw the ad.
“Hmmmm campaign ad?” wondered Paula Faris from ABC News on Twitter.
“Speaker Ryan still not running for president but is making ads 10x stronger than the current candidates,” tweeted ABC News journalist Alex Mallin in response to the ad.

No point. It's almost better to finish turning the US into a welfare state than to continue having the country be strip mined by the likes of Heidi Cruz' boss, Blankfein and the American people get no benefit whatever. Easy money for the NWO and commissions set up by the likes of Ryan and Cruz to gut Social Security. Those two festering boils won't do anything about Odungacare because it facilitates attacks on their real target which is Medicare.
Meanwhile, the Cruztowners will have their Kool-Aid and armies of tiny sheet rockers.
The GOPe is more ideologically aligned with Hillary than they are with conservatives. They tolerate us to get our votes, and we fall for it every time.
The fact that you call Trump a single issue guy is laughable.
Parroting Establishment media platitudes you heard on TV does not make me think you are intelligent.
I am voting for Trump, been a supporter pretty much from the first time he talked about illegal immigration & the crime.
Rience said eight states and currently running applies all the way through.
Except that the rules committee can change the rules when they meet.
Except that delegates "won" by the candidates are mostly selected by the state party, and while "bound" to vote for a candidate on the first ballot, are NOT necessarily bound to vote for that candidates interest when changing the rules.
Justice? Typical Trump supporter. My way or the highway. Most are serial stay-at-homers anyway. Those who aren’t are reasonable and will support the better man. Hillary will end up winning with Trump. At least we have a slight chance with someone mentally stable.
Show me another time when candidates have remained in the race when they had no chance at getting the majority of the delegates.
President Hillary.
I can’t speak for Katsick, but you surely don’t think Cruz should have dropped out? He can still win it on the first ballot.
I do not watch tv, and laughing is good medicine, so keep it up.
the belly laughs will stop once you see a conservative agenda does not emanate from a Trump WH.
