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.

those conservatives are mostly interested in shaking the status quo, which Trump excels at. Think Palin, Sessions.
Trump has no social conservatism whatsoever. Unless one has this component, one cannot be a true conservative.
Take a close look at this photo of him with his daughter, including the birds.

Ok if selling casino business, but do we want that as our American role model?
First, I think you have forgotten quite a few conservatives who have endorsed Trump besides Sessions and Palin—who, BTW, were top billing around here until they did not endorse Cruz...funny how they have fallen out of favor at FR with Cruz supporters. But that was before your time...
Second, the kingpin endorsement for me is Phylis Schlafly. She has been a defender of conservative and pro-life values since I was a kid. She truly is the Margaret Thatcher of conservatism...The Queen of Conservatism...and who did she endorse? Trump!!!
H*ll YES I want to SHAKE UP THE STATUS QUO~~~WHAT IS WRONG WITH THAT?!?!?! Don’t you?!? If you like status quo, then of course RINORyan (via Cruz) is your man!
I live in Chicago (now I am sure you are going to stereotype me), and Trump has a luxury complex by the Lake downtown. I don’t believe it has a casino. Lots of his properties are not casinos...But so what if he has casino???..Casinos are not illegal. Many folks like to go to Vegas and visit casinos...After all, it is not like an illegal brothel..you know like the DC Madam brothel who has numbers about certain Presidential candidates....?
Now about that picture...Nice that you saved it from January...I saw the Tweet from Ireland...a political operative of some sort...Well he has a problem...and if you agree with him, then you have a problem going on in your brain too, FRend...Birds? So what are you talking about? Seriously, and I say this with all due respect, buddy, either you are gullible or you need some help because your rorschachs are not normal.
Oh, and I have raised parakeets and cockatiels, so I know a thing or two about bird breeding! Those birds aren’t, and frankly SHAME ON YOU and your mind for thinking they were and trying to make some tawdry assumption.
UNELECTED U.S. Speaker of the House, Paul Ryan
wants to be
UNELECTED U.S. President
instead
#ArrestPaulRyan
#ArrestReincePriebus
for fraud & tampering with a U.S. Election.
That’s how I see it. Any lawyer takers?
Bat sheet crazy...those GOPe
WILL NOT VOTE FOR RYAN....among others
What a mess— then tonight on Breitbart (or was it Drudge) Obama is hinting at a 3rd term — or at least the article’s author is doing the hinting.

Woah, now that is some serious news...Maybe you can find—definitely post-worthy!!
pics speak a lot.
and if one is not a social conservative, one cannot be conservative.
I do not wish a role model like Arnold in CA.
Bite me.
I don’t want to and what a mature response. WOW
Don’t blame me if you vote for the establishment only to see the same people back stab your guy when yo were told what would happen. It speaks volumes about you.

nice from a Christian woman too.

Well the pic is speaking very different things to you than to me, and I am a person who actually knows what birds copulating look like...The pic is not what you say it is...It is what you and your mind want to see...Sorry, but you’re wrong.
Sad, but since you are supporting Cruz, maybe I should not be TOO surprised that you would not be able to see beyond your bias or whatever the problem is...and seriously, it is a problem if you are seeing birds having sex in that picture...
I am not sure what is your point about social conservative...Trump has said he is not for Common Core; his pro-life position has satisfied Phylis Shlafly...good enough for me.
You are all focused on role models...Man, the country is going down the drain...You say Palin and Sessions are just focused on shaking up the status quo...Well that is exactly what we need to do....And we need a General Patton...I WANT SOMEONE WHO IS GOING TO SHAKE UP THE STATUS QUO—They can be rough, they can use the words that you find uncomfortable and maybe not a perfect role model...
But then you seem to indicate that you would prefer a social conservative and perfect role model** and status quo...So say hello to President Ryan.
**BTW I am not sure that Cruz will turn out to be the perfect role model anyway.
Geez. It's the latest in a series but it's somehow supposed to be the first Presidential ad? It's just another video. Stop letting stupid reporters get you riled up. Ryan is not going to be the nominee.
Ryan has demonstrated clearly — by his actions — that he will give mulatt=o=bama whatever he wants ... just as the House Boner did ... consistently.
I tried to find article and could not...Hopefully you can find it.
In other words they are both in the same line of work.
Too timid to enter the Octagon, but not too shy to steal the belt, with a little help from his friends. That’s our Ryno!
Go Cruz: Paul Ryan is counting on you.
Cruz isn’t winning anything.
Judas Iscariot Cruz approved.
The Bill of Rights Second Amendment does 99.9% of its work just running through minds of the establishment. Hopefully the little kings don't try to push the envelope this time.
I will not vote Democrat, but I will not vote for a GOPe candidate after the all the attacks that they have launched at Trump. Even me, the name calling of Trump supporters by the party and media pundits. Forget them.
You said it. We should all move to another party.
