Ta-Nehisi Coates said that the hippies won the presidential election. (He was in favor.) A soon-taken-down Religious Right screed said it was the "sluts." (They weren't.) Some say the queer vote made the difference. Love it! If only George McGovern had lived to see it.

I suspect that he and many other historians would find any cinematic representation of any individual playing a key or decisive role in shaping consequential events inadequate
