Former Democratic operative turned Good Morning America co-host George Stephanopoulos good barely restrain himself on Tuesday as he gushed over a new movie about the first date between Barack and Michelle Obama. Talking to the stars of Southside With You, he hyped the film as focusing “on one day in the summer of 1989 when Barack and Michelle Obama went out for the first time.”
Stephanopoulos pressed actors Tika Sumpter and Parker Sawyers (who stars as Obama), wondering, “I guess you guys have to be a little bit nervous thinking, 'Are they going the watch the movie?'” Zeroing in on Sawyers, the ABC co-host offered an Access Hollywood-style softball: “You say it was Barack Obama who actually inspired you to get into acting?”
To the pregnant Sumpter, Stephanopoulos highlighted the role as the future First Lady: “You say this film was a gift to your daughter.”
Journalists have been excited about this promotional film for months. During a special Super Bowl interview in February with Barack and Michelle Obama, CBS's Gayle King previewed the movie and marveled, “When I think about the Obamas, even your dates make national news.”
Conservatives and Republicans shouldn’t hold their breath waiting for the Ronald and Nancy Reagan first date movie or seeing the cute way George and Laura Bush met.
Only he and his immediate circle of Hollyweirds will whoop and holler over it, the rest of the US .... meh.
The article must be complete crap. It says Stephanopoulos is a former Democrat operative. I can’t read past the first lie.
I’ll pass. AUDITION made me lose my taste for “date” horror films.
Given Hollywoods dearth of ideas, I'm sure we'll be seeing "The Obamas Date Two: Electric Boogaloo", and "Date III - Now in 3D!!".
Well done to both of them.
I see the people in casting took a few liberties.

Pure fiction. The actor playing the Obama character actually looks like something other than a wimp, and the actress playing the Michelle character is actually attractive.
BTW, BARF!!!
Does it show them commiserating over the agony of living in a country they have never been proud of???
If I need to force myself to vomit I think I’ll stick with Ipecac of Syrup. But I am curious to know whether Michelle was still a male when they first dated or had she already undergone the treatments?
Won’t be long before this abomination ends up in the dollar bin at the filling station.
Steffie is a latent faggot ‘Rat ...
Does it show ValJar and the not-so-very “Reverend” Wright pulling the strings behind the scenes????
Does Barack confess to her that he’s gay, and she agrees that they can be very useful to each other???
He bent over for her.
[Good actors. She has Moochelle’s “Perpetually Pissed” look down cold. He looks like an arrogant poof.
Well done to both of them. ]
He just needs a fresh pack of KOOLs in his breast pocket.
Stephanopoopis is such a disgusting ass-licking little prick.
