Might make you look at the Democratic party in a different light

If you are looking for a neutral political documentary then this isn't it. This movie is a no-holds-barred attack on the Democrat party and Hillary Clinton through dramatization.

It's titled Hillary's America but that title is a little misleading. The movie focuses more on the Democratic party than it does on Hillary Clinton. It only starts delving specifically into Hillary in the last 35 minutes of the movie.

This movie deals in absolutes. The Democrats are cast as absolute villains and the Republicans are portrayed as absolute angels. The movie tells us the Democratic party started off consisting mostly of slave owners but became con-artists and scammers after slavery ended to enslave people again through other means.

The actor who played Lyndon B. Johnson was spot on. Also, the actress who portrayed young Hillary looked very much like her.

I'm not going to vote for Hillary, the mediocre score i'm giving the movie just reflects how i thought of the movie in general. The reenactments and the dramatics were over the top. I would have been happy if it was just a straight documentary.

Goofs
At the beginning, Dinesh D'Souza says he was wrongly accused of making a campaign contribution in someone else's name. He actually pleaded guilty to that charge before the court rendered a verdict.

Quotes
One of two unspecified governors on Air Force One: Why do you want these War on Poverty and Great Society programs so much?
President Lyndon B. Johnson: I'll have them niggers voting Democratic for the next two hundred years.
