Oh my God you people. I thought we had pass this. America is a laughing stock. All this hate mongering just because this man is an african american. What a shame. We are in the 21st century America.

This is going to be a great documentary - to show the journey of a person (not just of colour) who seek the US Presidency.

One has to remember that in the beginning, this person do not have the Democratic machinery support like that of the Clintons and he had also to fight the whole Republican machinery to win the Presidency. His was a belief and an idea that caught fire and supported by the people.

If he was white, it will be just as great and remarkable to be able to move against the entranched interests of the lobbyists, party apparatiks and right wing and religious nuts. But he is black and thus his journey and victory all the more astounding.

I wonder if they'll mention his association with Acorn, an organization that has been connected (via their employees)with voter fraud, embezzlement (from within), endorsing prostitution that would have used young girls from El Salvador, etc. Also, will they discuss at length his 20 year relationship with his "mentor" Rev. Wright?
