On the Screen: Opening shots are (1.) Bush, apparently on balcony at the White House, turning to look at the camera--soft filter; and (2.) Bush walking colonnade.  Bulk of the ad consists of a grid of squares at a bit of an angle.  Each square has a video clip or text; hone in on individual squares.
