2016 Obama's America Movie Review

Dear Readers,

Today I saw 2016: Obama's America and it was soooooo awesome!  I loved it.  You should go see it.

If you haven't heard, it's a political documentary about Barack Obama's motives and about what he'll do to the country if he gets re-elected.  D'Nesh D'Souza, the director and writer and narrator of the documentary, argues that Obama's actions are motivated by an anti-colonialist worldview.

I think D'Nesh is spot on.  His movie made so much sense.  I know a bit about the anti-colonial worldview because for a year in college I had a roommate who was from Nicaragua who was switching majors from psychology or anthropology to applied indigenous studies.  He told me that one day he wanted to get a doctorate degree, and one day he would write his dissertation on the three corrupt C's: capitalism, Christianity, and Caucasians.

Also, I took a post-colonial literature class from this lady a few years ago, and we read a bit of Edward Said and we read the most racist conqueror stuff Christopher Columbus ever wrote, and we deconstructed Robison Crusoe.  The class was unashamedly anti-Christian and anti-American and anti-capitalist.  The professor is an angry woman.  I hope someday she gives her heart to Jesus and finds a good man to settle down with.  (I assume she's single.)  But it will be hard to do if she keeps hanging around the Northern Arizona University English Department.  I shouldn't get personal, though.  I'm sorry.  Namaste. She was a great lady in a lot of ways, too.  She helped her students become better writers, and she challenged my ideas and she's very smart, and etc. and etc. and etc.

But I can't help evaluating the lives of liberal radicals and evaluating the lives of conservative radicals.  The conservatives always seem to be more psychologically and socially healthy and positive.  They have nice families.  The liberal radicals always seem to be angry and fighting against something.

The movie successfully argues that Obama is not a typical liberal Democrat like Bill Clinton.   He's a radical anti-colonialist.  He wants to make the world more "just" and "fair," as he understands those terms, by enriching third-world nations and fleecing the first-world super-powers.  He wants to tear down America and bring countries like Kenya and Indonesia up.  But mostly, he wants to tear down America.

The best thing that the movie does is tell a story.  Republicans aren't that great at telling stories.  They tend to like graphs and figures.  But is it a story that the Romney campaign should tell?  No.  If they did, they would be called racist, and they would be seen as attacking Obama's family and getting nasty.

But is it a story you should tell?  Yes!  Go tell your liberal friends and your unregistered voter friends to go see 2016 Obama's America!  And go see it yourself!  And vote for Mitt Romney! 

Sincerely,
