Go. Now.

I saw that, and thought it was extremely funny as well, but at the same time, it's not actually obvious how it ties to the cause that the creators are using it for.
It seems to be a parody of both the pharmaceutical TV commercials we've seen in the last few years, as well as a satire of the whole concept that drugs can solve all our problems.
How does that connect to lobbying for an independent FDA panel to require that drug companies publish all study data? Not that it's a bad cause, I just don't see how the video actually addresses it.
