Politics is downstream from culture, as Andrew Breitbart once said.

I imagine a far right conservative would be terrified of barbie and for a good reason. Like what if their child ends up liking it? And they start learning on their own? And if they don't vote Republican when they grow up? (I.e. me after watching movies and watching shows that strayed me away from my mom's heavy conservative views)

Assuming tv and movies are a still hundred times more powerful than any political ad on forming younger opinions about stuff.
