Dinesh D'Souza's 'America' Trailer Released (Video)
The Hollywood Reporter ^ | 26 Jan 2014 | Paul Bond

The conservative behind "2016: Obama's America" is under indictment for campaign finance violations but his next doc will open on schedule on July 4, filmmakers say.

The filmmakers behind Dinesh D'Souza's upcoming doc have vowed to press on while their star defends himself after his indictment on federal charges that he violated campaign finance laws in 2012. On Sunday, they released a trailer for the movie, America, that is set for release on July 4. OUR EDITOR RECOMMENDS

'2016: Obama's America' Filmmaker Claims 'Libel' Over Accusations of Marital Infidelity

Oscar-Winning Producer of 'The Godfather Part II' Joins Dinesh D'Souza's Next Film

Dinesh D'Souza Released on $500,000 Bond America is the follow-up to the surprise hit 2016: Obama's America, which earned $33 million in 2012 and became the second most popular political documentary in history, behind Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11, which earned $119 million in 2004. In America, D'Souza -- who wrote and produced the film -- makes the claim that 1960s radical leftism is more or less indistinguishable from current mainstream liberalism, a doctrine that he says preaches the United States is the product of "stealing and plunder" from Native Americans, Mexicans and African-American slaves. "I want to take this progressive, leftist critique head on," D'Souza says in the trailer. The movie will include re-creations of some of the major events in American history. America is directed by John Sullivan and co-produced by Gray Frederickson, who won an Oscar for producing The Godfather Part II, and Gerald Molen, who won an Oscar for Schindler's List. D'Souza and Sullivan co-directed 2016: Obama's America.

Sick that we live in a nation where the ruling party can use the power of government to harass and destroy their political enemies.

Might as well live in a totalitarian dictatorship where the “law” is used merely to uphold the power of the rulers.

I’ll go see his movie, and I’ll buy the DVD!

Dinesh D’Souza is an American treasure, and we must do all we can do to support him!

Put the trailor on a thread of its own in activism??
Include a question whether its the reason for the arrest and 500,000 bail!

If we all spread it thru FR email and FB the arrest will be used to move the film forward

Beautifully clear. Fits my take on the topic.

He didn't even have to say the word, "treason" for it to be obvious.

But how many average people on the street know who D’Souza is?

Don’t get me wrong, I liked 2016, and certainly plan to see America, if it plays near me.
Since this “income inequality” foolishness seems to be the centerpiece of the left’s platform now, and this film challenges the reasoning behind it, this is probably why they are going after him so hard.

He still should have known better, though. I’m talking about the campaign donations, now.

Agreed, his insights are penetrating. I like his books for the same reason.

You’ll find multiple copies of Moore’s “documentaries” at your local library. Schools use his propaganda to, well, propagandize. How many D’Souza vids will your library have? How many schools will show the other side to our children?

Of course it’s going to be at Dartmouth, so it will be a boo-fest every time Dinesh says anything.

It should be loading almost instantly, unless you’re on dialup.

From viewing that trailer I can see why 0bama would want to discredit D’souza and why he would want to do it now.
