The Obama campaign just announced that Lt. Gov. Dan Mongiardo and Rep. Ben Chandler are starring in radio ads for Barack Obama. The ads begin airing soon and highlight Obama’s unique story along with his upbringing by a single mother and grandparents, commitment to his family, his nation and the Christian faith.

Here’s Chandler’s ad:

And here’s Mongiardo’s

Congressman Ben Chandler’s Ad:

Sen. Barack Obama: I’m Barack Obama and I approve this message.

Congressman Ben Chandler: Hi, this is Congressman Ben Chandler. Here in Kentucky, certain values are passed along from generation to generation. Barack Obama shares those values.

Barack’s story is a uniquely American story. He was raised by a single mom and his grandparents from Kansas. His grandfather served in Patton’s Army. His grandmother worked in a bomber factory.

They didn’t have much money, but they gave Barack a thirst for education, a love for America, and a belief that we all have a stake in each other.

A Christian, Barack’s first job was with churches helping communities left behind when local plants closed.

And Barack Obama’s commitment to workers is just as strong today. His economic plan ends tax breaks for companies that ship jobs overseas and gives middle class families a 1000-dollar tax break.

This is Ben Chandler. If you are ready for a President we can trust – and change we can believe in – vote for Barack Obama.

Lt. Gov. Mongiardo’s Ad:

Sen. Barack Obama: I’m Barack Obama and I approve this message.

Lt. Gov. Mongiardo: This is Lieutenant Governor Daniel Mongiardo. I’d like to tell you about my friend, Barack Obama. Because once you get to know him, he’ll be like family to us.

Barack was raised by his mom and grandparents. They didn’t have much but they taught Barack the value of hard work and a good education. Something Kentuckians can relate to. As a strong Christian, Barack’s always stood up for people… after college he worked with churches to help communities and families left behind when local plants closed… passing up big jobs on Wall Street.

That’s why Barack’s economic plan will help our families struggling to pay the bills.

Barack will end tax breaks for companies that ship jobs overseas and instead create jobs here in Kentucky. And his plan gives middle class families a 1000-dollar tax break.

This is Daniel Mongiardo. I know Barack Obama is a man of great character who loves this country as much as we do. He’s change we can believe in, and Kentucky needs it.
