2016 the movie starts today

John David Ware, formerly of Columbus, Ohio, now doing film (168 Project) in California

I just saw "2016-Obama's America." Narrator Dnesh D'Souza has a unique point of view, having come from a similar experience of colonialism at the hands of the British. D'Souza predicted much of Obama's behavior in his book, so there must be something to his analysis. Riveting and informative, the film explores our president's frequently bizarre actions: reckless spending as we teeter on the edges of a Greece-style meltdown, redistribution of wealth, provoking class warfare, passing bills that not even he knows what is in them, shutting down oil drilling and the Keystone oil pipeline in the US, but giving money for drilling to Brazil and other countries, supporting domestic anarchy via the Occupy Movement, turning his back on or being cold to our longtime allies--Egypt and Israel, NOT supporting the rebels in Iran, doing NOTHING to prevent Iran from attaining nuclear weapons, and making secretive pacts with Russia as he works to weaken US nuclear superiority). It's hard to believe that a US President could ever compile a record like this. It's harder still to understand what benefits proud, hard-working people can derive from 4 more years of Obama. The film reveals much about the way Obama grew up and what/who shaped him. It reveals the great conflict in Obama's ideas versus traditional American ideals and how unlikely was his rise to power. Though he seems like a even-tempered person, you can really get a sense of the bitterness that colonialism engenders. The film also points out Obama's mastery of the politics of perception and appealing to different groups at the same time. D'Souza says that America felt good about electing it's first Black president. A second Obama term, the film argues will make for an America that is unrecognizable compared to the one we have known.

See the film. It starts today.
