...movie has a weird parallel plot. At the start of the film, Spurlock learns that his wife Alexandra Jamieson is pregnant with their first child. He seems zazzed about the prospect - he just has to make his movie first.

Obama informs his audiences that some jobs can certainly be brought back, while Clinton cautions that, of course, not all jobs can be recreated. From that point on, their riffs run parallel. The two support cutting subsidies to companies that outsource jobs abroad and creating rewards for those that keep production here. Both candidates would invest $150 billion over 10 years in new green technologies such as solar and wind power, which both campaigns say will create five million new jobs over the next decade.
