Anyone think that this could possibly reap a nomination for Best Documentary Oscar next year?

Too politically biased...so yes,this could easy win an Oscar!
shareI just finished watching this documentary. The thing I liked most about is it wasn't about shaming fat people, like Super Size Me was. I had no idea how McDonalds amongst other food giants, had a hold on our government.
The most convincing part, was when the former Surgeon General admitted that the government prevented him from making statements that promoted health, while sending a negative message about the food giants that are in with the government. I also really appreciated the statement on how the media dehumanizes fat people by showing what those of us in the size acceptance community sarcastically call "headless fatty" imagery.
I was surprised to find out Moby did the music for the credits of the film, I really was thinking "Wow, this sounds so much like Moby!" turns out it was by him! I'm glad he was involved with this, knowing how he's been promoting healthier eating through veganism for most of his career.
This is a disturbing documentary, one that should alarm any thinking citizen of the United States. Unfortunately, there are too many within our government who place money above the welfare of our children. God help them for corrupting the children.
