I tried the same thing, but this time with US presidents and Mountain Dew Baja Blast:

Introducing Mountain Dew Baja Blast: A Taste That Brings Us Together

Scene opens with a roundtable of U.S. Presidents from across the political spectrum—each standing in front of a Mountain Dew Baja Blast can.

George Washington (standing tall, holding a Baja Blast):
"In my day, we were forming a new nation. We believed in liberty, but perhaps we were a little too focused on tea. This... this is a drink that captures the spirit of adventure and new frontiers. It's bold, it’s refreshing, and it reminds us that change can be just as sweet as the past."

Abraham Lincoln (nodding thoughtfully):
"It’s important to recognize the power of unity, and how something as simple as a new taste can bring people together. We faced division in my time, but in the end, we knew that compromise and understanding were essential. Baja Blast—its bold flavor, its ability to stand out—reminds us of what it means to embrace difference without fear."

Theodore Roosevelt (slaps his hand on the table with enthusiasm):
"By all means! This drink, like the spirit of America itself, is robust and unafraid! We stand at the helm of progress, and Baja Blast is a symbol of that energetic, forward-thinking attitude! If you don’t like it, get out of the way!"

Franklin D. Roosevelt (smiling as he takes a sip):
"During times of uncertainty, we often turn to new ideas and innovations to push us forward. Baja Blast is a reminder that even in the darkest of times, there’s always a spark of hope—something new and refreshing to lift our spirits. It’s a taste of the future, rooted in progress."

Ronald Reagan (grinning, holding a can aloft):
"Well, folks, this Baja Blast sure is a taste of optimism. It’s got that sweet, tangy flavor that makes you want to believe in the American dream. It's a drink that doesn’t apologize for being bold. In my day, we called that American exceptionalism—and this, my friends, is exceptional."

Bill Clinton (chuckling):
"I have to admit, I didn’t expect a drink to taste quite like this. It’s complex, refreshing, and just the right amount of zing. It’s got that little bit of unexpected, just like life in politics. Whether you’re from the left or the right, sometimes you just need something that makes you smile."

Barack Obama (sipping carefully, then smiling):
"What I like about Baja Blast is that it’s a blend of the familiar and the new. We all know what it’s like to face change, to navigate uncharted waters, but with balance and perspective, we can build something truly special. It’s a reminder that our differences don’t have to divide us—they can inspire something unique, something refreshing."

Donald Trump (holding up the can):
"Let me tell you something—this drink is huge. It’s a winner, believe me. People will love it. It’s got a taste you can’t ignore, just like the Trump administration. This drink stands out. Baja Blast knows how to get attention, and that’s what we need more of. It’s the kind of boldness America thrives on."

Joe Biden (laughing warmly):
"This Baja Blast? I like it. It's about bringing people together, having a good time, and remembering the little things that make us happy. It’s like a family BBQ—simple, but memorable. And we could all use a little more of that, don’t you think?"

The scene zooms out, showing all the presidents sharing a toast.

Narrator (in a deep, reflective tone):
"No matter where you stand in the history of America, there’s one thing we can all agree on—sometimes, the best moments happen when we come together to enjoy something new. Mountain Dew Baja Blast. A taste that’s as bold as America itself."

The screen fades to the Baja Blast logo.
