The Daisy Advertisement (1964) A powerful commercial for the 1964 Presidential Election as a little girl counts petals off her daisy suddenly witnesses the countdown of a nuclear explosion. President Lyndon B. Johnson’s commercial only aired once on NBC in 1964. The commercial’s point was to stop short-tempered Republican opponent, Barry Goldwater from having access to nuclear codes or else the world would blow up.
