Obama has been called a Marxist,a Socialist,and a Communist among other Things,but one thing you cant call him is an American,That is what I took from the Movie.
Also an Issue that I have read about but have not heard in the Campaign at all,Our Nuclear Arsenal is Being Depleted,From 1500 missles to 300 and if Obama is reelected he has plans for another 80% reduction while our enemies are Building them as fast as they can. If that does not cause you concern think your Social security check will arrive with Missles Flying into your mailbox?
The missile reduction was what stood out most to my 18 yo daughter also. Extremely sobering.
That's what I took away from the movie, too. I think D'Souza was masterful, subtle and clever by bracketing the movie with the introduction of himself and BO as having many characteristics in common. Though he repeats the narrative from Dreams From My Father ("born in Hawai'i") in a deadpan sort of way, what resonated with me, after having seen the film, was the underlying statement (more shown than told): "We are both immigrants. We have a common background. But here are our vastly differing views on America and its future."
Yes, they are both immigrants. D'Souza to BO: "fellow immigrant..." -- yes, he's subtle.
