I don't need to see it to make the statement I did. I know quite enough about Dinesh D'Souza to know that this is not a legitimate documentary. I don't say this because he is conservative. I say it because he is true. I would not go see a liberal documentary either where the director had a similar bent.
I bet you watched his debate with the Rev. Jackson and Jackson lost. You can see his debates on yutube by the way.
D’Souza writes that George Obama has previously run into roadblocks when it comes to the country his brother now leads: A book he teamed up to write with a British journalist in 2010 was never published, and George Obama’s tourist visa to visit his mother living in Atlanta was refused.
So what’s the real story here? Where’s George Obama’s “fair share”? George’s tragic situation exposes President Obama as a hypocrite. Here is a man who demands that others pay higher taxes to help the poor—even poor people who are not related to them—while Obama himself refuses to help a close relative like George.
The answer, D’Souza posits, is because George Obama does not share Barack Obama or their father’s “anti-colonial view that blames Western colonial exploitation for the poverty and suffering of the Third World.” In fact, George Obama is, in his own societal context, a conservative:

So in spite of what you wrote the book was clearly published, because as your link would indicates it is available on Amazon.
George is a communty organizer in the ghetto! After this book, he won't be living in a hut much longer.

Financial terms were not disclosed, but an official with knowledge of the negotiations said the deal was worth six figures. The official, who was not authorized to discuss the contract, spoke on condition of anonymity.
Other Obama relatives are working on books, including a half sister, Maya Soetoro-Ng; and the brother of first lady Michelle Obama, Craig Robinson. Duke University Press is releasing the doctoral dissertation of the president's mother, Stanley Ann Dunham, who died in 1995.
Barack Obama has written a pair of million-selling books, "The Audacity of Hope" and "Dreams from My Father," in which he describes George Obama as "a handsome, roundheaded boy with a wary gaze."
"2016" the movie is going to be released in the summer. It is produced by Gerald R. Molen, the same man that produced Schindler's List and it is based on the novel, "Roots of Obama's Rage", by Dinesh D'Souza.
D'Souza makes some fascinating claims about Obama's vision for America. He argues that his vision is not that of the typical American but rather of an anti-colonial outsider who wishes to realign America with the world. To realign the US, he has to weaken it because that would contribute to global fairness and be the punishment the West deserves for Colonialism.
What research has the producer performed on the subject? What are his credentials? Where are his sources?
The movie is about D'Souza's interpretation of what Obama wrote and frankly is little more than D'Souza projecting his life experience onto Obama.
Clearly, you haven't seen the movie because that is not what it's about. You may be doing the interpreting.
He doesn't interpret anything. He takes Obama's own words and puts them into a historical global context.
I wish people who didn't know what they are talking about wouldn't malign a good, thoughtful presentation. It is NOT biased (but of course liberals can't conceive of such a thing because everything they put forth IS biased.)
