Viagra - Around the time that Democratic President Bill Clinton was facing his impeachment charges for the sexual scandal with former White house intern Monica Lewinsky, ex-Republican Senator Bob Dole, who lost his 1996 presidential bid for the White House, became the poster boy for erectile dysfunction when he appeared in a television commercial for Viagra, a new wonder drug created by Pfizer that promised miracles for those 30 million men who unlike Clinton "couldn't get it up." The commercial (a sort of "a public service announcement,") aired in mid-February, 1999. And true to his political roots (of never giving a straight yes or no answer), Dole addressed the subject of ED ("as a private citizen") but never directly endorsed the product. The spot was created by BBDO advertising agency who previously had featured Bob Dole in a Super Bowl commercial for Visa.
