lets see if CNN will do a feature on this... from my mailbox....

The Plot Thickens..verrry interesting
Very Interesting Bit of Detective Work

1. Back in 1961 people of color were called ‘Negroes.’ So how can the Obama ‘birth certificate’ state he is ‘African-American when the term wasn’t even used at that time?

2. The birth certificate that the White House released lists Obama’s birth as August 4, 1961. It also lists Barack Hussein Obama as his father. No big deal, right? At the time of Obama’s birth, it also shows that his father is aged 25 years old, and that Obama’s father was born in “Kenya, East Africa “. This wouldn’t seem like anything of concern, except the fact that Kenya did not even exist until 1963, two whole years after Obama’s birth, and 27 years after his father’s birth. How could Obama’s father have been born in a country that did not yet exist? Up and until Kenya was formed in 1963, it was known as the “ British East Africa Protectorate”.

3. On the birth certificate released by the White House, the listed place of birth is “Kapi’olani Maternity Gynecological Hospital “. This cannot be, because the hospital(s) in question in 1961 were called “KauiKeolani Children’s Hospital” and “Kapi’olani Maternity Home”, respectively. The name did not change to Kapi’olani Maternity & Gynecological Hospital until 1978, when these two hospitals merged. How can this particular name of the hospital be on a birth certificate dated 1961 if this name had not yet been applied to it until 1978?

Why hasn’t any of the Media ask about Obama & Michelle been asked about the loss of their Law License, his Social Security number being from Connecticut, (Where he has never worked?), his passport used to go to Pakistan, his college records. We know more about Sarah Palin’s youngest daughter than we do about our President.

Why hasn’t this been discussed in the major media?????

LET THIS CIRCLE THE NATION, PASS IT ON.

What a moronic post! CNN is a business and they turned DOWN business by rejecting these ads.

They always put their agenda ahead of profits. The MSM has been doing it for decades. It is why Fox is doing so well.

I recall high official in the NRA telling me, decades ago, that the networks refused to sell them time.

CNN buys a movie to play during their movies.

I'm sorry, but I have no clue what you are trying to say.

CNN produces content that it hopes to sell to advertisers who will buy commercials.

It didn’t “drop off completely.”

'2016' held steady ALL week...#2 movie in America on Monday and Tuesday, and #3 on Wednesday and Thursday; when it got bumped down a notch by the new release 'Lawless'. Rocky Mountain releases its figures late,so rather than delay figures from other studios; they drop '2016' and other 'late reporters' to the bottom of the charts for a few hours until their figures are reported. That's SOP.

2016 had a lower drop than Fahrenheit on their 2nd wide-release Fridays. 2016 only dropped 27% from the previous Friday, Fahrenheit 36%. Fahrenheit is probably the best comparison at this point since it's the most successful political documentary, and 2016 is going to become the 2nd. Even though Fahrenheit made more money per day, the momentum is similar.

Only downside for 2016 is that it expanded theaters by 70%, but its screen average went down by 50%. Which is why despite the big expansion, it made 27% less money than last Friday. However Fahrenheit had a similar expansion at the same time, so 2016 still held onto its audience better than Fahrenheit by any comparison.

2016 still looks like it'll end up with $35-40 million to me, so that'll make it the #2 political documentary ever behind Fahrenheit, even if you adjust for inflation. A far distant #2 but still an unqualified success. The estimated tickets sold are 1.8 million so far and will probably end up around 4 million. In terms of profits, the theater keeps half the gross, so the filmmakers should be splitting up about $20 million among themselves by the time it's over. Be interesting to see if they put the profits back into producing another political documentary.
