I have never seen a connection between Forest Gump and Barack Obama. The former was a naive simpleton who ended up doing the right things in life, while the latter is just a corrupt weasely politican and glib front man for a crime syndicate.

I do.
Forest Gump the movie gave Obama’s staff the idea you can ‘photoshop’ your way into every WH past presidents’ biography with an Obama cameo entry.
That’s the connection.

Ah, but the world THOUGHT he was smart. Remember his coast to coast runs?
But I posted only because Obama is the epitome of Forrest’s Mamma’s saying. With both Forrest and Barak, those actually paying attention know they are nowhere near as bright as people perceive them to be.
I always thought a better analogy was with Chaunce, the Gardener.
