Think our political system is pretty crazy? So does Roseanne Barr, who sought the Green Party’s presidential nomination in 2012 at the suggestion of her friend Michael Moore. He appears in this documentary on Barr’s quixotic campaign, as do Rosie O’Donnell, Tom Smothers, activist Cindy Sheehan, and more. Director Eric Weinrib chronicles not just Barr’s presidential run, but also how she struggled on her way to stardom in her groundbreaking TV series. And by the way, contrary to some reports, Barr has not endorsed Donald Trump for president this year. “I endorse myself. I will be writing my name in until I win,” she told Yahoo Celebrity. Roseanne for President is in theaters beginning today and is also available for online rental or purchase. Watch a trailer below.
