BELIEVE IT TO BE A MUST SEE.
TERRY

Every independent/undecided voter should see this movie and the movie should be free!! Very scary to see what Obama's lack of American history is bringing us to. The last 20 minutes of the movie pits it all together.

FREE? WHY? WE HAVE TO GET OVER THE FREE KICK IN THIS COUNTRY.
TERRY

I saw the movie this weekend.
If you are going to see this movie to be entertained and to leave the theater with a good feeling, I don't recommend it. Too much to contemplate
If you question if our country is heading in the wrong direction I recommend you go and see the movie and draw your own conclusions.

Well presented documentary that would benefit any person viewing it. The author asks some very good questions of many of the actions taken by the President and possible motives for them. I didn't leave the movie decidedly agreeing with the author. I left asking my own questions and to this day mulling my perception of those actions and suggestions to this day. Invigorating for sure.

This movie is NOT 'a documentary', it is simply a movied adaptation of D'Sousa's earlier work. To call it a documentary is really quite inaccurate.

Having spent a lot of time reading about this president, I was happy to see a condensed production that fits the pieces together for popular consumption. I think D'Souza's thesis that anti-colonialism forms the basis for Obama's behavior and, in my opinion, disdain for America, is well documented and quite convincing. The only aspect of the movie that left me unsatisfied were the questions of who has financed the Obama rise to power. Who paid for the Harvard and Columbia educations? Was Obama a beneficiary of foreign-student status? Why did Obama and his wife surrender their licenses to practice law? There are still phantoms lurking in the shadows of America's own Manchurian Candidate. Perhaps D'Souza will answer these questions over time - but only if he is not silenced like the Kenyan Obama relatives by a re-annointed Barack Hussein Obama.

We saw the movie the day of the "hurricane" that never really happened in Tampa. I left the movie theater wondering how someone could be raised mostly in this country, yet not be an American. Also, how did we ever elect this person who is not really an American. The answer is that we all become "sheeple" and we "did" what we were told to do.

Yes, I also left with more questions. Who did finance Obama's rise to power, and for what purpose? Who paid for his expensive education? Much of the documentary is in Obama's own words. I wanted to vote for him in 2008 but I couldn't in good conscience because I didn't know him. This movie helps me to know him somewhat and now I am glad I made my choice to NOT vote for him. I believe he is a danger to our country. He has desimated NASA, and is on his way to desimating our military strength. He is a dangerous man and he has dangerous people controlling his puppet strings.

Comment from a reader:
My wife and I saw the film on Sunday afternoon (Lincoln). Very well done, a 93-minute documentary that goes fast. It does a strong job of showing the cultural and social influences of Obama's polyglot geographic and family background with lots of location footage. D'Sousa also supports convincingly his "anti-colonial" thesis for which so many of the bien pensant criticized him, and which I thought remote and implausible based on what I thought I knew. Several well-done graphics toward the end, where the story becomes current, show dramatically just how exactingly the effects of Obama's policies play out across the world and here at home to substantiate his case (ex: energy policy removes drill rigs from around continental U.S. and Alaska, makes them appear around Brazil, Mexico, and Argentina - gone from a colonizer, newly there in former colonial states). As he makes clear, the only theory which appears to comprehend all these major policy effects is the anti-colonial idea; mere ideology, party politics, payback to donors and supporters, etc. cannot explain them.

D'Sousa points out his similarities with Obama. They were born in the same year in the 3rd world, both are dark-skinned, both went to Ivy League schools, graduated the same year, and proceeded along vastly different paths. As a result, he has an appreciation for the nuances of native thought and custom on these matters (along with how a 3rd-worlder is selectively hustled in college) which would be invisible to a non-native. He delves at some length into the inconstant and even bizarre adults in Obama's life, beginning with a real gem in his biological father but with a mother who belatedly tries to make it a race. He can readily understand how, and thus some of the why, Obama turned out as he did. Little consolation, but seeming explanations often make things appear reasonable.

I went to view the movie on Friday 8/31 with my wife, daughter and son-in-law. We all found it extremely enlightening and eye opening, it sort of dotted all of the I's and crossed all of the T's. For me, there can be no other analogy except..."if it walks like a duck, etc." I came home that night and immediately posted the link for the movie on my facebook page and I will continue to do so periodically in order to keep it at the top of the news feed.

Nothing that surprised me here, really, but the presentation was very well done and directed. Very disturbing, once again, that even now the press is not vetting this president. CNN just aired an adulatory piece yesterday, "Obama Revealed" about what a great basketball coach he is and how he anguised over the decision to take out Bin Laden etc.

While I have yet to see the movie, my intention has always been to go since I first saw a preview a few months ago. I must say that I have enjoyed reading all of the comments elicited, whether I agree or not is of no matter. I'm glad this topic was chosen.

I thought the movie was short on what really could be said about Obama. He has attacked this country for more reasons than mentioned. This president has put this country in a bad position regarding economics, policies both foreign and domestic, and has succeeded in dividing this country by class. He has not fought for America but against it at every turn. God help us all. If this man gets four more years I think many of us here know that we are afraid that we will not be able to recover. These are potentially dangerous times for America the movie only scrapes the surface.

After Obama became President I was worried about the future of America. After seeing the movie “2016” I am scared that what little is left of the America of our Founding Fathers will be obliterated. I ask myself: “What is it in our culture, in our intellectual climate, and in our view of morality that made someone like Obama reach the highest office in the land?” Having read the book “Atlas Shrugged” a few times it is now clear to me that it was almost inevitable that we would end up with a President like Obama. The book “Atlas shrugged” has a happy ending. I see no such ending for America.

We will be showing this movie on November 1st, Thursday, at the Rogers Free Library in Bristol. 525 Hope Street. Showtime is 6:30pm. Admission is FREE
