Wag the Dog was also a pretty decent movie, as far as comedies about distracting the public during elections go. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=steA_PZPkc8

This was not lost on me.

Another movie from that same era I enjoy is The Pentagon Wars about the development of the Bradley Fighting Vehicle. It’s one of the better made for TV movies I can remember.
