I do think that Don draper ended up writing the ad for the Coco Cola spot because of the sentimentality that he displayed when meeting with the Hershey’s people. After his company got bought out and all of the changes that were happening in the lives of the women he was closest to at home and at work. I think he realized he could have been that man crying at the Hippie retreat
He admired the man’s desire to be seen and his innate need to be happy which we all share as human beings.
That Coco Cola ad was a happy, healthy temporary escape for a nation that was grieving because of the Vietnam War and for the changes in our society.
