And I know you took a lot of -- -- that as well but issued -- turned to 2016 in this movie.
It's it's garnering even more attention I think broadly I don't know if you would agree with.
Oh absolutely I mean the film has broken out it's now in 2000 theaters I think part of what is making everybody.
By its -- opening is that at critical points in the film -- -- Obama's own voice.
So when you begin to think -- what does this really true Obama himself comes on and you go wow I'm getting it from the horse's mouth so.

Doesn't believe in American exceptional.

While ruling out -- exploration for America.
-- we know he's been blocking exploration here a delayed the Keystone Pipeline the oil moratorium all the regulations.
Now it's beyond a doubt that the export import bank.
Gave two billion dollars in loans and loan guarantees to Brazil and by the way Obama went to Brazil.
And he said that we've been helping you drill and refine oil and when you when you got ready we want to be a best customer direct quote from Obama.

He was consulted on the bailouts and I can remember him actually he ended John McCain.
Sitting there in the White House for President Bush.
Both -- have been working on her own strong top candidates for president both from Salt Lake City mayor -- -- meekly.
More -- certainly Senator McCain.
As they signed off on what was to be the course of parts assertive mood of the film that's full of all that's incriminating information the conversation with Medvedev Obama's founding fathers all the people shady characters he's associated with.
So they can't answer any of that.
And they pick these little items and try to quarreled about it and they're wrong on this show and it.
