Back in 2011 (!!!) I wrote a pretty angry piece for TMV about the Donald Trump led birth certificate scandal. It hit me while I was speaking to a friend about Obama’s presidency that I’m still angry about it.
I realised that I was just as angry at the fact that I had to jog his memory of the birtherism crap than the scandal itself. It then hit me that a lot of people might have forgotten as well, so what better way to job their memory about it all than a movie… right?
I did a follow up piece for my film blog. Here is a snippet:
“I for one was heartbroken when President Obama released his birth certificate. I understand that it was causing too much problem but it was giving in to bullies. The GOP didn’t pay for the controversy and the media swept it under the carpet. It has been forgotten.”
You can check out the whole piece here if you want.
Anyway, I’m off to write my Obama script.
Peace.
Just a normal everyday bloke writing about films.
