Budweiser has released its chosen ad for Super Bowl LI before the big game. As with previous popular commercials from the beer company, the spot is patriotic and evokes Americana and the traditional values of hard work and perseverance.

The minute-long ad depicts the beginnings of the company through the eyes of its co-founder, Adolphus Busch, and his journey from Germany to America in the 1850s. It shows the young man’s struggles and long road to the American dream — celebrating the best of this country.

Of course, since it’s an ad about immigration coming in the middle of President Trump’s temporary and very misunderstood ban on refugees — many have made the spot political. Some say it targets Trump and his policies.

Ricardo Marques, the vice president of Budweiser, shrugged off the criticisms and said the ad had nothing to do with Trump, especially since the company began work on it last May. “Of course it would be foolish to think the current context is not putting additional eyeballs [on the ad], but that was absolutely not the intent and not what makes the spot as special as it is,” said Marques, according to the Associated Press.

He said the ad should stand out for reasons beyond politics or current happenings — as a more general statement on the human spirit and the American dream. “The powerful thing about the story is the fact that it’s a human story and the human dream resonating.” Still — some have threatened boycotts and liberals have tried to turn the ad into their own personal political statement.

While the latest ad is a little more serious than previous Clydesdale ads featuring horses and puppies, it packs just as much of an emotional punch.

In today’s world of social media, the ad will no doubt be turned political and gobbled up into the machine of constant bickering voices. But when taken out of the context of today — it’s the story of the difficulties of hard work and the payoff of the American dream.

And in a bit of Super Bowl news that everybody should be able to get behind, the honor of the game’s coin toss is reportedly being given to former President George H.W. Bush, 92, and former first lady Barbara Bush, 91. The two were recently hospitalized with many reports sounding the alarms for the couple’s health. The new news is worth celebrating, no matter one’s political views.
