Do not watch it unless you want to hear a number of great "facts". When I say "facts" I employ a tactic which is frequently used by the narrator. George Washington is the 43th president, and that is a "fact". Get ready for "facts" like this to pop up with such frequency that you feel apathetic toward the end of the film. This "educational film" is littered with falsities as well as strawman arguments. Logic is severely lacking in the film. Please, I implore you to avoid it all costs, unless you are using it to bring up discussion about propaganda. This is the worst video ever.
