We are living under criminal leadership now and it is a constant stress on the nation +++...

Maybe years from now when Dems have healed a lot of the damage being done now.

Now that there’s a first movie out it is, in itself, part of our history.

If there is a US Presidents library that is about all the Presidents this interview and the movie should be a part of it. If there isn’t a library then there should be. And it should be accessible in it’s entirety via internet and required study material starting in High School.

I feel the same way about the Black History Museum, the Holocaust Museum and any museum about persecuted people.

This business of every generation forgetting what happened before they were born needs to stop. Especially for High School students. They should graduate knowing everything that has happened in the last hundred years at least. It might keep each generation from repeating the same mistakes over and over again.

All young people should see this film about how we got into The War on Iraq. Yes, and we are still there with some young people dying for this lie!!!!!! One thing the filmmaker missed was when they covered up the Picasso painting “Guernica” as a backdrop for Colin Powell’s lying speech at the UN. I was disappointed to see just the green curtain covering it. It would have been a great scene showing how the warmongers had it covered up!The end with the stupid myth about how he “kept us safe” was not the best moment for this film!
Some people really believe it!
