About this movie

A look at the inner workings of the Obama administration as they prepare to establish a legacy when leaving power after eight years. The film revolves around Obama’s foreign policy team: Secretary of State John Kerry, U.N. Ambassador Samantha Power, Deputy National Security Adviser and presidential confidant Ben Rhodes, as well as National Security Adviser Susan Rice and President Obama himself. Over the course of 2016, they travel the world attempting to solidify and “lock-in” policies that they believe will define their legacy, promote diplomacy over large-scale military action, and fundamentally alter how the U.S. government confronts questions of war and peace, as they prepare to hand over the machinery of American power to a new administration.

I've read a lot of the most disgusting comments on here. Hardly any of them were about the film and more on their complete disdain and hatred for our former president. And him being elected just showed the world just how racist most folks are. Clearly he was hated ONLY because the color of his skin. But the trolls won't fight with fact. During his administration CLEARLY the Bush administration was the worst. THAT'S FACTUAL. But the reason why some won't say it is because to them Being The Black POTUS is worst than a White POTUS bankrupting American and letting Bin Laden get away.
