## Description

Sometimes horrifying, often hilarious, "A Perfect Candidate" is a twisted journey into the underbelly of American politics. In 1994, former marine Oliver North re-emerged from the Iran-Contra scandal to run for the U.S. Senate.

Review: Excellent but! - Everything was great, the only minor problem was the inside of the case arrived damaged. So now the DVD isn't attached to anything while inside the case and it bounces around.
Review: Great Documentary - This is a great doc film covering the 1994 Virgina senate race,between Chuck Robb(D) and Oliver North(R).I enjoyed this,but I thought it was a little bit biased.I thought the filmmakers were trying to make North out to be more of the enemy,than compared to Chuck Robb.Going more for the Iran contra issue,than all of the corruption that was hiding in Chuck Robb's closet.I also thought the "Hey Hey Hey Goodbye" tune toward North at the end of Robb's victory,was a jab at us conservatives,to gloat in their victory.Obviously,all of this showing that the left,had some kind of involvment with the making of this film.Although,I would wished for a different outcome and seen North win the senate seat,I still enjoy this movie.I highly recommend this,to both conservative and liberal viewers.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Good but troubling POV
*by B***N on September 19, 2005*

A Perfect Candidate is an interesting and thought provoking documentary on the Senate race between Republican Oliver North (of Iran Contra fame) and scandal tarred incumbent Deomcrat Chuck Robb. The movie tries to make the case that no matter what your positions are on the issues it is better to vote for someone who is a idealogue than a moderate. It demeans the very notion of someone who may be conservative on some issues and liberal on others. Before that it is a celebration of Oliver North because of his perfect conservatism. When North starts to make mistakes and Robb starts tearing into him the movie becomes more interesting because the filmmakers obviously never thought Robb could win re-election. The great thing about this documentary is all of the scenes with Douglas Wilder. He was the first black governor of Virginia and ran as an independant in the Senate race for a while. The racial issues explored is the main reason why this is worth getting.
