KFC pull Chinese ad with an Obama look-a-like crushed by a giant fish sandwich

(UK Mail Online) - At first glance it could be the latest scheme by the White House to boost the President's flagging poll ratings.

A confident Barack Obama is seen rousing a flag waving crowd as cheering supporters wave banners marked with his infectious election-time mantra - change.

But after a few seconds it becomes clear this is no desperate political gamble. It's an ad from KFC China, which used an Obama look-alike to sell a new fried fish sandwich.
