For at least 30 years, Hollywood has been picturing Hillary Clinton as president, pushing those pictures out into our pop culture in the forms of TV shows, movies, songs and children’s books.

The notion of a President Hillary Clinton has been oozing into the national ethos.

In the case of Hillary Clinton, the media have been laying the groundwork for her ascendance to the Presidency since the early 1990s.

A new report released by the Media Research Center contains data going back to the 1990s. It found dozens of instances of flattering mentions or positive portrayals of a presidential Hillary — a far cry from the “Lock Her Up” candidate chanted about repeatedly this past week at the Republican National Convention.

In a special seven-part study dubbed “Hillary Clinton’s Media Fan Club,” the MRC documented how the media have helped fuel Clinton’s political campaign with their fawning news coverage.

“From gospel hymns to children’s books that offer up Clinton as an example of girl power, we’ve had three decades of liberals imagining — and pushing for — a Hillary Clinton Administration,” said the MRC.

Journalists who claim to be unbiased are shown to be completely biased as they utter constant pro-Hillary remarks. From NBC’s Willie Geist saying, “Can you think of a more qualified human being?” to MSNBC’s Chris Matthews thrilled by the idea of Hillary becoming “a truly great president,” dozens of instances of biased references exist.

The latest and newest installment of the MRC series, released Friday, focuses on entertainment media. The findings:

• 15 TV Shows Support Hillary for President: Of the 15 shows supporting Hillary, at least five are based entirely on fictionalizations of her real life, amounting to more than 189 hours of Hillary-positive airtime.

Among the shows are “Madame Secretary” with Tea Leoni, “Commander-in-Chief” with Geena Davis, and “The Good Wife,” featuring a storyline with fictional Democratic Florida Governor Florrick who runs for president against the real-life Hillary Clinton.

One of the earliest cases, noted the MRC, was in an episode of the ‘90s show “Sliders.” The characters of the show time-travel between alternate universes. At one point, they think they’ve finally landed in their own decade again. However, they realize their mistake when the nightly news host announces that President Clinton will be addressing the nation — and Hillary (not Bill) takes the stage.

Who do you think would win the Presidency?

And don’t forget that Hillary shirt Penny wore in a 2008 episode of “The Big Bang Theory.”

• 7 Songs Praise Clinton: Among the tunes created in honor of Clinton is a rap song by Kendrick Lamar, who touts how being near Clinton is a status symbol, said the MRC.

Last year, a women’s chorus called Voices from the Heart replaced the name “Jesus” with “Hillary” at a campaign rally in Portsmouth, N.H. The chorus was singing the old gospel song “Woke Up This Morning (With My Mind On Jesus),” but opted to replace “Jesus” name with “Hillary.”

• 24 Children’s Books Promote Hillary: The MRC has tallied some two dozen children’s books aimed at kids as young as four years old that have been published praising Clinton since 1994. Several more are set to be released right after next week’s Democratic convention.

One released earlier this year is “Hillary Rodham Clinton: Born to Lead,” which is described as an “inspiring portrait of Hillary Rodham Clinton, the first female presidential nominee in United States history: a girl who fought to make a difference — and paved the way for women everywhere…” The goal is to instill “gender pride” in girls ages four to eight.
