Just as Laura Roslin's swearing-in brings to mind the image of LBJ's swearing-in (on Air Force One at Love Field in Dallas) I think the producers were similarly influenced in how they showed the destruction of the Botanical Cruiser. The sight of Cami innocently staring at flowers in her hands made me think of the little girl picking flower petals in the once-only-broadcast LBJ TV campaign ad against Barry Goldwater in 1964. The campaign ad ended with a nuclear explosion, whereas Cami's demise comes with a blinding fade-out: coincidence? I doubt it.

: I've heard about this in passing.  Can you supply us with additional information in the form of web sites? It'd be nice to note this, seeing as other events in the series' run mirror those that have already occured in the US. -- [[User:Joe.Beaudoin|Joe Beaudoin]] 15:58, 8 Aug 2005 (EDT)

:: No sources to cite. Just my speculation. Hell of a campaign commercial. Goldwater's line: "In your heart you know he's right." Johnson's camp: "In your heart you know he (*Goldwater*) might (*push the button*)."  [[User:cy1980]] 21:58, 8 Aug 2005 (EDT)

::: I always heard it as "in your guts, you know he's nuts". See [[Wikipedia:Daisy (television commercial)]] for commentary and a video. I agree that the scene in the miniseries is probably an allusion to this. --[[User:April Arcus|April Arcus]] 01:51, 9 Aug 2005 (EDT)
