Many recognize Republican U.S. Rep. Vern Buchanan as the powerful Florida
representative who made a fortune in the private sector and is now the heavy
frontrunner to be the next Ways & Means chairman.



What most people likely do not know is that before “making it big” Buchanan
had to scrap and claw for everything he earned.



No longer.



In a gripping new campaign ad entitled “Self-Made
<[link removed]>,” a narrator walks viewers
through the story of Buchanan’s blue-collar upbringing, everything from growing
up as one of six children in a 900-square-foot home to delivering newspapers
“just to put some extra change on the table.”



The two-minute commercial, produced by ad-maven Max Goodman and Stoneshill
Productions, begins with a long shot of Buchanan walking from the U.S. Capitol
with a stage-setting voiceover, “To appreciate how far he has come is to know
where it all began.”



It then transitions to actual footage from Buchanan’s childhood street in
Inkster, Mich., before showing photographs of his high school yearbook and from
his service in the Air National Guard.



The second half of the ad focuses on Buchanan’s success story, capturing how
he and his wife of 45 years started a business with “$1,500 and a dream.” It
even shows newspaper footage of Buchanan talking all the way back then about
the importance of the American Dream.



Buchanan is facing a Primary challenge from Republican Martin Hyde, a
controversial candidate who has made headlines forverbally assaulting

police officers and for calling supporters of former PresidentDonald Trump “
bigots
<[link removed]>
.”

Buchanan qualified to run in Florida’s 16th Congressional District. As of the
first quarter
<[link removed]>
of the year, he boasts more than $1.5 million in cash on hand.



Meanwhile, the planets appear to be aligning for Buchanan to become one of the
most powerful members of Congress. With the retirement of Texas Rep.Kevin Brady
, Buchananis in line
<[link removed]>
to be the senior-most Republican on the House Ways & Means Committee. If
Republicans recapture a majority in the House, Buchanan is seen as the
front-runner
<[link removed]>
to take over as committee chair.



While Buchanan’s new ad will undoubtedly surprise some of his constituents
back home, it will likely do the same with some of his colleagues in
Washington, D.C who only knew one side of his life story.
