I've seen it.
Back in 2008 I remember being puzzled at the hype surrounded Barack Obama. Fellow students and friends were hanging on every word and I remember celebrations and joyful outbursts floating across campus the night he won. It just didn't make sense to me and I always felt like something wasn't right. Here was a man who came out of nowhere, swooned everyone into loving him, and had no clear experience or new ideas to bring to the table. Now let me state this: I'm a diehard conservative and knew in advance that I was opposed to Obama's ideas. I always felt that something was missing and I couldn't put my finger on what it was about Obama that I found so frightening. I figured he was just incompetent and unable to rise up to the role of Leader of the Free World. That may very well be true. However, 2016: Obama's America finally proposes a theory that makes sense and does it in a compelling and respectful manner.
Dinesh D'Souza did his homework and takes us into Obama's past, present, and the probable future if he retains power in the White House. One thing I really appreciated about this film was that it examines Obama's life and beliefs without being mean-spirited. There are no personal attacks, hateful remarks, or unfair shots. Everything is calmly and easily laid out in a conversational manner, sucking the viewer in without insulting their intelligence. There's also nothing in here about Romney or any Republican candidates. This is solely Obama's film and he is the main focus.
D'Souza's theory is brilliant and he uses Obama's own words to prove his points. For the past few years I kept trying to figure out how Obama could do what he does and why so many harmful and questionable policies have been enacted. D'Souza's assertion that Obama holds an anti-colonial view of America was the missing puzzle piece I was looking for. Granted, only the president himself knows what he really believes. This is simply the theory that makes the most sense and I believe it's spot on. The facts and interviews are very revealing and give D'Souza's commentary the weight they need to really be persuasive. The production values on the film are excellent. This doesn't look like some half-baked do entary or propaganda piece. It moves at a brisk pace and keeps you engaged from start to finish. The last ten minutes are especially chilling and a serious look at what America, as well as the rest of the world, may look like if Obama gets four more years. Any open-minded and serious voter should see this and give it consideration.
If you're an Obama supporter then chances are you've either dismissed this film or haven't seen it, which I'm guessing many of the negative reviews here prove. On the flip side, the detractors will feel validated after watching this and it will probably reiterate what you already know. Every American needs to be informed and make up their own mind after examining all of the facts. This film gave me the confidence to stand by what I've believed since 2008: we really don't know Obama and we can't afford his policies for another term.
lol
so it reinforced your view of who Obama 'actually' is...
tell us what is going to happen during the next four years? should I be scared?
When does he start talking about Obama?
All he's doing is jerking off so far.
lol Dartmouth renegades.
Crofl "Cruel to be Kind" soundtrack for the Reagan years.
Can you talk about Obama now, please?
Finally. 10 minutes in.
Oh, -- now he's talking about himself compared to Obama.
Obama inherited some problems, but what he did with the country as president in the last 3 ½ years hasn't helped and I would argue he has harmed the American economy and the American way of life. This movie pretty much backs that argument up.
What Obama inherited was an economy at 3.3% GDP. Our GDP has decreased to 1.3% now.
Gas prices were under 2 bucks when Obama came in, what are they now? Over 4 bucks?
He inherited a national debt of 10 trillion and he increased it to 16 trillion, squandering money at a record rate.
Obama vetoed the Keystone Pipeline. He also put a stop to offshore drilling.
Obama gave millions of dollars in loans to Solyndra and other green energy companies owned by his cronies that went bankrupt.
Since his leadership our soldiers have come back in body bags at twice the rate they did under Bush.
Obama said we'd be out of the war by now. He lied.
Obama took over GM and Chrysler. The Volt is what they have to show for it, a car whose battery catches fire and costs more to make than they can sell it for. This is just typical government incompetence and an argument for free market capitalism that has budgets and whose aim is to make money and not lose it.
The most striking thing about Obama is his lack of compassion for American citizens. There are 23 million Americans who don't have jobs, Americans who have not been able to work because the cost of gas is too much for them to commute, more Americans on foodstamps than ever before in history, and this joker of a president is flying his family around on multiple vacations that cost the American taxpayer hundreds of thousands of dollars. He's neglecting meetings with world leaders so he can hob nob with celebrities on The View and host fund raisers with rappers. He could care less about the suffering of Americans. Why? Why do you think he is so heartless? Well, this movie addresses that. His principles, his prime directive overrides compassion. This movie discusses how his background, how he was raised, his belief system and uses Obama in his own words to explain his actions since he's been in office to explain the real reasons for the bad policies he's created that have caused so much suffering for so many Americans.
This movie was very factual and informative. It's worth watching. All of America is his victim until he's voted out.
If you've been watching the sycophants at MSNBC or CBS, PBS or CNN telling you differently, that everything is fine, that nothing bad is Obama's fault you're being lied to. News flash: those aren't actual news outlets anymore. They are Democrat propaganda machines. If you want to know actual news, I'd recommend FOX or the new media online: Breitbart, Blaze, Newsmax, Drudge Report, Daily Caller. Those guys report actual news and unlike the mainstream media they actually love our country and want it to thrive.
Why are you just pasting Amazon reviews?
The film is a slick thinly veiled piece of "neo-Birther" propaganda. D'Souza would have the viewer believe that President Obama is an anti-colonial ideologue who is mired in the world view purportedly espoused by his father.
D'Souza uses "iffy history", innuendo and clearly manipulates many of his interviewees by asking leading questions designed to illicit answers that fulfill his own ends. The D'Souza method is a throw back to the Big Lie Theory of the mid-20th century and should be viewed as such. The film fails to rise to the level of history and lacks even a minimum of journalistic integrity.
Simply stated this do entary represents the worst kind of scholarship and reportage. Given the outcome of our recent election, the film happily fails. D'Souza's work is an insult to the intelligence of a majority of Americans and should be relegated to the ash heap of revisionist history.
This movie is hilarious.
This "feature" could have been 30 minutes long without all the padding and masturbation.
I'm supposed to take this mother er seriously after watching him try to hula dance?
OK, now I get to watch him talking on the phone.
You're a braver (or drunker) lad than I.
Pretty much the Michael Moore school of do entaries, tbh.
lol implies his life was in danger in Kenya trying to interview Obama's family.
MM's do entaries are holding on very well, macaca d'Souza's bull propaganda just got curb stomped by 100+ electoral votes and +5M popular votes.
Family interviews were particularly worthless.
no . I actually checked MM's filmography to try to find out what bout might have been talking about.
lol 100% tax rate
Yay, another phone call!
So Obama fooled all the whiteys by not acting angry.
Obama was elected because -- get this -- people liked him.
Some amazing insight here.
I'd much prefer MST3k tbh.
