==Trivia==
*The alternate title is Betty Boop for President.
*The title from a 1932 short was used for this 1980 compilation film, Betty Boop for President: The Movie. While clips from several Betty Boop cartoons are featured, this film includes no scenes from its 1932 namesake.
* Record producer Dan Dalton took scenes from thirty-five Korean-colored Betty Boop cartoons and wrote a connecting narrative to make this feature, Hurray for Betty Boop. He used clips lasting from thirty seconds to five minutes. 
*Campaign slogans in support of Betty were painted on sidewalks and walls. Victoria D'Orazi who provided the voice for Betty Boop in this film, toured the country in a Betty Boop costume.
*Dalton firmly asserted in 1982 that the film's failure to receive a theatrical release was due to New Line Cinema's lack of aggressive promotion. The New York activities "didn’t connect to the film." The picture was shown on cable in 1981. Dalton received $10,000 for his work on the film and owned forty percent of it. "It’s a great children’s movie, a great doper’s movie, a great midnight movie. Everyone said I couldn’t do it and to keep the continuity. It was difficult," Dalton told Fleischer authority Michael Dobbs.
*Koko the Clown is depicted as French and Bimbo as African-American.
*Some of the lines featured in the film were taken from the original cartoons.
*The full film feature was uploaded by Dan Dalton on social media on the 19th of March in 2016.
