pretty neat. shows some cool behind the scenes access during a campaign and how candidates really act when not on stage.
kinda changed my opinion of romeny as an empty suit. guy actually has some wit about him.

I'm sure he was just acting himself and wasn't aware the cameras were even rolling.

Such a shame they didn't show this before the election.

she is a sucker for families and she was like, "his family is so great and they worked so hard, and I know he loses, I just cant take it before bed"
even though she's a bleeding heart hippie

The media narrative is a powerful force.

Mitt would've been a good president. His campaign was terrible and he let Obama define him & set the narrative.

What is pathetic about this statement is you have a president that basically took a nap in the first debate and was destroyed by Mitt. My guess is that Mitt underestimated the populous level of stupidity and assumed that people would be able to think for themselves as to who would be a better president. He was wrong. He should have lowered his standards because this country becomes stupider by the day and there seem to be fewer and fewer people that care about who gets elected president and will vote for party and color rather than ability.

Obama speaks the language "stupid" better than Mitt. That was Mitts only downfall.

His story is so inspiring- the rise from poverty, the way he fought his way into a system that had no place for him. The way his life turned out was so unexpected.

Yea, he had it so easy taking his family money and turning it into successful businesses using his own initiative. If only took the hard route like John Kerry and just married into a richer family so he would never have to work a day in his life and land cushy government jobs.

Who says John Kerry is any better? What does he have to do with this? Who's crying and waxing poetic because Kerry lost? I'm simply speaking to the fact that Mitt Romney is responsible for his loss, not some great cosmic injustice. He changed his position many times, and made statements that created dissonance with at least 47 percent of the voting populace. He didn't get hit by an out of control car...he was driving and put it in the ditch all by himself. He's not a bad man, just not a great one either. The romanticization of Romney is what I oppose.

I agree. How dare he take advantage of all the opportunities his dad provided for him. Every father's goal should be to provide nothing for their children.

I don't mind taking advantage of the situation one was born into...no one has any choice into which family they are a part of. I just find it incredulous that is he lionized as "the great saviour" that never was when nothing in his life has shown him to be so.

Why don't you bother to watch the documentary before you make generalizations about his character? You clearly oppose him being humanized in any fashion. You'd rather stick to your preconceived notions about him than learn anything about him. I get it.

What the frick are you talking about? The documentary is about a candidate's life on the campaign and a behind the scenes look at his life, not DPRK propaganda, dumbass.
