Full disclosure: I haven't had the chance to see Dinesh D'Souza's movie 2016: Obama's America. But I watched this 30 minute interview with Dinesh including a Q&A with the audience who previewed the movie in Glenn Beck's studio.
The audience had just seen the film seemed stunned and horrified. One man asked if the military could do anything about Obama. Dinesh did not blanche at the suggestion of a Military Coup d'etat as he reminded the audience member (somewhat ruefully) that Obama is the commander and chief after all.
Aside from that bit of distastefulness, one thing that Beck and D'Souza kept saying as if it were a blight on one's character, is that Obama is against colonialism. It is because his father was tortured by the Colonial British authorities in Kenya. D'Souza spoke as if Americans should be major supporters of colonialism. All the time I was listening to him, I was thinking, "Isn't that why we separated from Britain during the Revolutionary War? We were mistreated by the British and did not want to be their colony." So, actually, I feel that Obama, in his dislike of colonialism, is all the more patriotic. Down with colonialism, I say!
