It's been nearly a month since we found out the Netflix documentary "produced" by Barack and Michelle Obama, American Factory, was nominated for an Oscar for best documentary.
American Factory debuted on Netflix in August and was the Obamas' first project under Higher Ground Productions. American Factory follows the story of a closed GM plant that was bought and re-opened by a Chinese billionaire. It wasn't shocking at all to find out the Obama-linked project was nominated for an Oscar. Had the Obamas been linked to Howard The Duck it would have been nominated for an Oscar. It was also not surprising that American Factory won the award Sunday night. The Obamas were not in attendance, however.
I've not watched the documentary, nor do I plan to, but no one will be able to convince me that it would have been nominated or won the Oscar had the Obamas not been linked to the project.
Liberal political figures have found Hollywood to be very willing to bestow accolades upon them. In fact, if you look at the Grammy nominations and winners for Best Spoken Word Album, you'll find a lot of Democrat politicians and pundits have a knack for getting recognized, while their conservative counterparts don't even get nominated. Nominees for Best Spoken Word Album include Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, Jimmy Carter, Al Franken, and Jesse Jackson. All of them won at least once. And, of course, Barack Obama has won two Grammy awards for Best Spoken Word Album, and Michelle Obama won her own Grammy a couple of weeks ago in the same category for her memoir, Becoming.

Hillary also won an Grammy for that tripe ‘It Takes a Village’.
Remember: Clinton won the Grammy Award for Best Spoken Word Album for It Takes a Village during the Grammy Awards of 1997.

Probably gonna get a 2nd hand CMOH if they don’t watch out. The new amazing grift-O-matic. In pairs.
The Kenyanesian Usurper should win a one way trip to Gitmo.
It’ll look nice on their shelf in prison...................
Hard to beleive anybody could stand listening to her voice.
A lefty friend today posted a news article with a snipe at PDJT. I responded that someone could submit an old Super 8 of an Obama picnic and it would get an award.
It was quite good, actually.
It was a kickback, just like his $65 million book deal.
You know, I’d joke that “next thing you know they’ll win the...” But they’ve won everything. Nothing left to win. Nope. My mistake. Next year, somehow some way, it’s the Super Bowl.
there is nothing those two cannot do... i wish they both could rule over us forever...
/sarc
was it really necessary?
You didn’t solely make that- someone else had a hand in that Mr. Obama.
Mo always said pigs get fed and hogs get slaughtered.
Best unnominated doc. No safe places
They won nothing.They were given the Nobel prize as a slap in the face to George W.Bush and now he is given a worthless Oscar.
Nothing here.
Oscar for being the best at pretending to be a president.
Next up - a Nobel Peace prize for Michelle!
Said it many time before..the left love giving each other meaningless awards.
I’ll bet that Oscar isn’t ‘worthless’ to Barack.
And it won’t stay on the shelf.
