So, the critics love the new Obama hagiography, Southside With You. The film earns a ridiculous 93 percent approval rating at RottenTomatoes. Robert Butler of the Kansas City Star says it’s a “terrific film – funny, romantic, respectful without being stuffy and, yes, inspiring.” Katie Walsh of the Tribune News Service says, “this deeply personal portrayal of the President and First Lady is inherently political – asserting their humanity and the specific life experiences that brought them to the White House.” Why, it’s pure movie magic!

But let's take a contrast: the Hollywood treatment of an incredible Republican love story, Nancy and Ronald Reagan.
