Yesterday afternoon I finally found the time to head to a theatre to see
2016 – Obama’s America, a movie based on Dinesh D’Sousa’s book “The
Roots of Obama’s Rage.”
In the book D’Sousa tried to determine just what was driving Dear
Ruler’s rage (dare we say hatred?) against successful wealthy Nations
and Americans? Why did he send the bust of Winston Churchill back to the
British Embassy in Washington? Why did he break with many previous
presidents and take the Argentinian side on the Falkans controversy?
Why is the centerpiece of Obama’s reelection campaign his obsession on
raising taxes on the rich, even when history clearly shows that raising
taxes on the rich only serves to reduce revenues to the government?
To answer these questions D’Sousa traveled to Hawaii, to Indonesia, to
Africa and around the Continental U.S. to interview the people who knew
Barack Obama and people who have studied those who were close to Obama
as he was growing up.
Now I tried to watch this movie with somewhat a different eye than most
of the people in that theater. As hard as it is to do … I tried to watch
it as an Obama supporter. I was looking for something that was clearly
untrue or for logical lapses
relating to Obama’s positions. (Yeah, like a liberal would recognize a
logical lapse.) Not once did I think to myself “Oh now come on, Dinesh.
That’s a little much.”
There were a few things in the movie that I had not realized … a few
surprises for me.
Obama’s mother, Stanley Ann Dunham, truly seemed to despise the
United States, so much so that she gravitated solely to men from the
“third world.”
Obama’s father was married at the time he met and married Ann
Dunham. No judgment here – that might
have been perfectly acceptable in his culture. Just didn’t know that.
While living in Indonesia Obama’s mother sent him to Hawaii to live
with his grandparents because she was
concerned that Obama would be influenced by his step-father, Lolo
Sotero’s, increasingly pro-American and pro-Western views and associations.
It was Obama’s grandfather, from whom his mother apparently got her
strident anti-American views, who
introduced Obama to Communist Party member Frank Marshall Davis,
with the intent that Davis was to become Obama’s mentor.
Obama’s private school in Hawaii, Punahou, was infused with an
anti-colonialist fervor; an atmosphere of resentment toward the United
States as having colonized Hawaii.
D’Sousa puts all of the information he gathers together and comes up
with the conclusion that Obama’s driving philosophy is one of
anti-colonialism. His mother, father, grandfather and mentor were all
strident anti-colonialists. They all harbored the feeling that America’s
wealth came from the exploitation of other nations and people. Obama now
sees the opportunity to honor the legacy of his parents by righting that
wrong and by destroying much of America’s ill-gotten wealth. This he is
intent on doing through the destruction of our economy.
At the end of the movie the audience – as it had in other venues – burst
into applause. I heard yells of “Romney – Ryan” and “Take back America.”
Me? I was shaken. The documentary rang true. It answered question for me
– and left me even more afraid for the future of my country than I am now.
Much to the dismay of the left, the movie has been very successful in
limited engagements across the country; so much so that the movie will
open in an much-expanded list of theaters over the weekend.
Now .. here’s the problem. The only people who will go see this movie
are people who are already predisposed to vote for Romney. The vast
majority of people who will vote for Obama are not voting for a
particular philosophy … they are voting for one simple reason: To get
access to someone else’s wealth. They don’t care what Obama’s motives or
reasons are. They care about one thing --- their checks – their money –
their ObamaMoney.
Here is the best way to use this movie. Get a friend who doesn’t vote; a
friend who basically shares your political philosophy, but who doesn’t
plan to vote because they feel their vote won’t count anyway. Take that
friend to the movie. Offer then dinner before or after .. but somehow
get them to that movie. This movie is so powerful it will take those “my
vote won’t count” people and change them into “By God I’m going to MAKE
my vote count” people.That may save our Republic.
