Anyone seen this and care to comment?

2016: Obama's America - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I went with an open mind expecting the film to be slanted against Obama, instead in posed some interesting questions and things I was unaware of. One of them is his past mentors, associations and hero's. Should be seen in my view, irrespective of who you will vote for. Don't know why the mainstream media has not brought up any of this.

Have not seen it, will not but I do care to comment by recommending an indie film that seems to go along with your tastes:

" “Dreams From My Real Father,” represents a breakout fringe of the birther movement. The film, according to its director Joel Gilbert, “presents the case that Frank Marshall Davis, a Communist Party USA organizer and propagandist, was Obama's real father, both biological and ideological, and indoctrinated Obama with a political foundation in Marxism and an anti-White world view.”

Just teasing you lon. Really.

Teasing accepted.

It seems to me that any film of this sort released in an election year is part of a political campaign. It's not hardcore smack you with it propaganda, it's the drip drip of doubt type of propaganda.

I have trouble believing that anyone who is capable of becoming president, or prime minister, is capable of implementing "their" vision of a country. First, they inherit the problems of all past governments. Second, they find out that they need to get re-elected and that involves patting some unpalatable backs. Third, they are puppets and have very little personal control over something as big as the leviathan that is government. Obama is just the name and face that is willing to sully its reputation for the machine that can't be stopped until it blows up at some point in the near or distant future.

I hope it disintegrates sooner rather than later.

The idea behind 2016 is absurd. It starts on a wrong premise.

"2016: Obama's America is a 2012 documentary by conservative author and commentator Dinesh D'Souza. The film was produced by Gerald R. Molen. D'Souza and John Sullivan co-directed and co-wrote the film, which is based on D'Souza's book The Roots of Obama's Rage (2010).

Rage? Obama is so well balanced he is probably among the rare few who Can be considered well-balanced & dare I say "normal", or the way normal should be. I am speaking of his personality, his persona.

The article makes mention of comments by a psychologist. Who? Keith Ablow? The shrink from Faux News who started the Obama hates White People nonsense?

"Promotion for the film started earlier than Hollywood films typically do, including an effort to generate buzz through promotion by people the target audience "trust and admire" such as Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh." Same link.

Anyone here admire those men? Geez.
