Take it as a counterpoint to Silverman’s sassy, obnoxious and, you almost hate to admit, kind of funny “Great Schlep” video: This clip is sincere, respectful and not even trying to be funny. (It opens with strains of HaTikvah as its star hugs her children.)

Each of these videos may be persuasive within its own distinct demographic (though Silverman’s will get the most hits).
In the end, Obama might not need either one, in Florida or anywhere else.
