Talk politics.

And those of us who pay attention to what they're doing can choose not to be influenced. There are things that I've bought because I had a coupon and it was an item that I was willing to try once, but I can't think of anything that I've ever bought because of an ad. All the ads do for me is let me recognize the name when I see it and think that maybe that's a big enough company that will be around for a while so it's safe to try it because if I like it I can buy some more later.
