Thanks to the magic of editing, President Obama will have a starring role in a television drama about one of his biggest accomplishments — the killing of Osama bin Laden — that will be shown just two nights before the presidential election.

But the star turn is virtually certain to bolster claims that the approximately 90-minute film amounts to a political stunt. Set for a prime-time debut on Nov. 4 on the National Geographic Channel, and a release the next day on Netflix, the film — “SEAL Team Six: The Raid on Osama bin Laden” — is being backed by Harvey Weinstein, a longtime Democratic contributor and one of the Obama campaign’s most vigorous backers. Mr. Weinstein bought the rights to the film for about $2.5 million at the Cannes festival in May.

It tells the story of the hunt by intelligence operatives and Navy commandos for Bin Laden, who was killed on May 2, 2011, in Pakistan.

But promotional materials and a copy of the movie provided to The New York Times this week also show that the film has been recut, using news and documentary footage to strengthen Mr. Obama’s role and provide a window into decision-making in the White House.

1. Tell your Repuke friends not to worry.

By the time this film is released, the vast majority of voters will have their intent to vote crystallized, and those who are swayed to vote Obama because of the film's message will probably be offset by those who are repulsed by the perception of an Obama ploy. Its impact will be minimal.

Myself, I'm anxious to see the film sooner than later, simply because I want to be reminded of what a kickass President we have.

3. Last I heard this had been postponed till after the election. I'm hoping it could have a positive

impact. At least it might counteract the free showings of the anti-Obama movie.

4. Different movies.

The movie you're thinking of is called "Zero Dark Thirty" and releases in December in theaters.

5. The one I was thinking about has already come out and, I think,

has the word 2016 in the title. I don't know about the one you just mentioned.

2. It'll be nice to be reminded what the President did in 1 term what Bush couldn't do in 2 terms. nt.
