This is the first movie that critic Brad Jones walked out on. He ranked it #1 in his list of the worst movies of 2016.
This is Dinesh D'Souza's third film. He would later thank Donald Trump, the President who pardoned him, in his next film Death of a Nation (2018).
This is the first documentary to win a Razzie Award for Worst Picture.
The film is considered a documentary, even though most of the footage is staged.
Dinesh D'Souza released a companion book, titled "Hillary's America," the same year.
"Carol Swain: One heroine from that era was a black journalist named Ida B. Wells. Long before Rose Parks refused to sit in the backseat of a bus, Ida B. Wells refused to give up her first class train seat to a white man. The reason we don't hear more about this is because Ida B. Wells was a Republican. She worked for a Republican paper that denounced lynching."
"Dinesh D'Souza: [deleted scene] I want to name some people who have been involved in America's racial history, and I'd like you to tell me simply if they were Republicans or Democrats. Carol Swain: Okay. Dinesh D'Souza: Let's begin with the inventor of the Positive Good school of slavery, the idea that slavery was a good thing: Senator John C. Calhoun. Carol Swain: Democrat. Dinesh D'Souza: What about the guy who invented popular sovereignty, the idea that each state could decide for itself if it wanted slavery, yes or not: Stephen Douglas? Carol Swain: Democrat. Dinesh D'Souza: What about the writer of the Dred Scott decision, authorizing slavery and claiming that blacks have no rights that a white man ought to respect? Roger Tawney. Carol Swain: That sounds like a Democrat. Dinesh D'Souza: What about the founder of the Ku Klux Klan, Nathan Bedford Forrest who was also a confederate general? Carol Swain: Democrat. Dinesh D'Souza: What about the great champions of segregation, the people who legislated 'separate but equal' and the Black Codes throughout the south? Carol Swain: Democrat. Dinesh D'Souza: What about Bull Connor, the famous or infamous sheriff who resisted the Civil Rights movement? Carol Swain: Democrat. Dinesh D'Souza: What about Arkansas governor, Orville Faubus, who shut the doors of the Arkansas schoolhouse, until federal troops had to come in to allow black students to get in the door? Carol Swain: Democrat. Dinesh D'Souza: What about George Wallace who said 'segregation now, segregation forever'? Carol Swain: Democrat. They're all Democrats. Dinesh D'Souza: Let's now talk about a few more figures in American history who resisted racial oppression. Abraham Lincoln. Carol Swain: Republican. Dinesh D'Souza: His Secretary of State, Seward? Carol Swain: Republican. Dinesh D'Souza: What about the two leading senators who championed the cause of abolitionism, Thaddeus Stevens and Sumner? Carol Swain: Well they were Republicans."
