I just saw the movie 2016

I had forgotten a lot of what obama said way back then...and the beautiful backdrops he gave his speeches in front of back then ...i have never seen so much emerald blue

It is all so different today...4 years makes quite difference....i learned a lot about obama....his mother and I have the same first name...i was shocked...i never knew obama has so many brothers and sisters

A very well done documentary...most of it narrated in obamas words from his book..well worth watching

It is worth watching (although it's not entertaining). It advances the thesis that Obama is motivated by the anti-colonial ideology that he attributed to his father. Like all exercises in pop psychology, this is a bit too simple, but it does explain a lot. Regardless of his ideology, we may all hope he isn't re-elected.

And David Maraniss who spent several years on a biography has called Dinesh D'Souza's book and movie a pack of lies and falsehoods written by a partisan party apparatchik. So most of what you saw in that movie was wrong.

Even the Anti-Colonialism is wrong because the real anti-colonialism happened before Obama and never influenced him.

Go read Maraniss' book if you want something approaching truth.

Anti Colonialism really seems anachronistic, it not atavist. Someone set up a poll atavist vs anachronistic.

How does it translate in the 21st Century?

Economic terrorism should be substituted.

Moi

Victim of Economic Terrorism.

And So Are You!

have you seen the movie?I never take anyone's word for anything...i always see and judge for myself...i had to see the movie after i saw bill mahar trash it on his show 3 nights ago

they went to great trouble to make sure the facts were accurate and could not say they were lies....we were told at the beginning the heavy baggage the film would carry because of the subject matter

most of the movie is obama speaking his own words...and quotes out of his book ....dream from my father...and members of obamas family talking directly....i always assumed obama had 1 brother...he has 8 half brothers and sisters

watch the movie and tell me what is not true..the stuff out of obamas mouth has to be true and documents about his life....it is a great movie about obamas life...just leave 10 minutes early if you dont want to see the conclusion at the end that says he is hell bent on destroying america

other than that the movie is a factual account of obamas life up till today

Practice you own advice. Not a chance in the world am I going to a movie that one of the most respected biographers in the world (Maraniss) calls trash. If you practiced your own advice, you would have read Maraniss' bio first. Practice what you preach.

Factual? Nothing from anyone associated with FAUX NEWS (and Dinesh D'Souza is bought and paid for by the Right wingnuts in the news) is remotely worthy of trust.

i read obamas book...i prefer to get it strait from the horses mouth...not second hand

The theater was packed

not a spare seat could be found

a very good showing for the suburbs of portland in liberal oregon...like i said ...lots of excellent images of obama in the good old days

What do you think of films from Ken Burns?

River

It makes no difference to me about what this film says or what it doesn't say.

At this point I am VOTING AGAINST the Republican candidates.... ALL OF 'EM!

...especially RICH Rombama and the GREEDY LITTLE Lying Shit-Bagger from Wes-CAAAAN-SIN...
