I saw Pickens' ad while watching Countdown last night. It starts out with just narration, and as I listened to it I thought it might have been Bill Moyers--except there was a little too much Texas twang for Bill. I then guessed Jim Hightower, but again, the voice wasn't high-pitched enough.

You could have knocked me over with a sofa pillow when I saw Pickens at tne end.
