TV shows, songs, children’s books all promote her image

(WND) – A new report says that Hollywood already has voted for Hillary Clinton in this year’s presidential race.

In fact, has been voting for her for months, years, even decades.

The Media Research Center found how Hollywood ever since the 1990s has been featuring a “President Hillary Clinton” on television shows and pro-Clinton children’s books. Even songs.

“If the former secretary of state does not become president, it won’t be due to the entertainment industry’s lack of trying,” the MRC said.

It found 15 television shows supporting Hillary Clinton for president – including at least five based on fictionalizations of her real life.

That’s 189 hours of “Hillary-positive” airtime right there.

Then there have been at least seven songs praising Hillary Clinton, including a rap creation by Kendrick Lamar.

“More than 24 children’s books aimed at kids as young as four years old have been published, singing Clinton’s praises, since 1994, and several more are set to be released right after this month’s Democratic convention,” MRC reported.

At the MRC’s NewsBusters, Maggie McKneely wrote about how, “It’s typical for the media to get involved in a campaign during an election cycle. But in the case of Hillary Clinton, the media have been laying the groundwork for her ascendance to the presidency since the early 1990s.”

The report continued, “Not that there’s anything wrong with the notion of a female president. But as early as the 1990s, TV shows have been promoting the idea of one specific female as president: Hillary Clinton. One of the earliest cases of presenting the idea of a female President Clinton was in an episode of the ‘90s show Sliders. The characters of the show spend time traveling between alternate universes. At one point, they think they’ve finally landed in their own decade again. However, they realize their mistake when the nightly news host announces that President Clinton will be addressing the nation, and Hillary (not Bill) takes the stage. That was just a taste of the next three decades.”

Among the findings:

Commander-in-Chief, which started airing about 2005, featured a woman vice president, who, “in a feminist stick-it-to-the-man move,” refuses to resign when the president is stricken. “President Allen is portrayed as ‘equal parts powerful leader, conflicted mother and concerned wife,’ i.e. the way liberals want to see Hillary Clinton.”

And writer Michelle King openly concedes the Florricks of The Good Wife are based on the Clintons.

The show Political Animals launched in 2012 and Sigourney Weaver said, according to the report, “we are inspired by Mrs. Clinton, who’s such a remarkable woman and a great secretary of state.”

Then there were State of Affairs, Madam Secretary and more.

“At least ten other TV shows have featured entire fictional plot lines or other show elements inspired by Hillary Clinton,” the report said. “Several shows, such as House of Cards and Scandal, draw major plot lines from Hillary’s life. Others promote her in subtler ways.”

On the silver screen?

The study found “Independence Day: Resurgence,” where actress Seal Ward “stated that she literally modeled her character off of Clinton.”

And Primary Colors, and The Contender.

Then there’s the music industry.

“From bizarre religious lyric changes to a Kendrick Lamar rap song, the music industry has been busy promoting Hillary for president,” the report said. “Hillary’s campaign inspired a woman’s gospel choir to replace the lyrics of a familiar gospel song with the word ‘Hillary’ instead of ‘Jesus.’ The new version of the hymn now goes ‘I woke up this morning with my heart stayed on Hillary.’

“Several artists have created what can only be called pro-Hillary anthems. The Irish group the Corrigan Brothers released a song called ‘It’s Time For Hillary,’ set to the tune of ‘I Just Can’t Get Enough’ by Depeche Mode. The band sings ‘love trumps hate and we just can’t wait to see the White House welcome Hillary.’”

Nor were children forgotten, the report said.

“The sheer volume of pro-Hillary books marketed to children as young as four is appalling. At least 22 are currently on sale, and three more are set to be released the Democratic convention, making that number jump to a staggering 25 pro-Hillary children’s books,” the report said.

Among the titles, “Partners: Bill & Hillary,” from 1994, the “Story of Hillary Rodham Clinton,” “Hillary Rodham Clinton: Activist First Lady,” “Hillary Rodham Clinton,” “Female Force: Hillary Clinton,” “Extraordinary Women: Hillary Clinton” and more.

“In the midst of those 25 children’s books, adults may feel like they’ve been left out. But there’s also a popular adult fiction series that promotes Hillary for president. Australian author John Birmingham has penned a series of novels named the Axis of Time trilogy. The books, which have been hailed by both Time magazine and Entertainment Weekly, take place in a post-Hillary Clinton world. She is known as the ‘most uncompromising wartime president in the history of the United States.’”

A playset of 10 paper dolls, a coloring book of scenes from Clinton’s life also are available.

“If she doesn’t win, that’ll be 30 years of work wasted,” the report said.
