I was a bit worried this documentary would be mostly propaganda, but that fear was unfounded. A good bit of the film is Pres Obama narrating his own book, Dreams From My Father. Dinesh D'Souza does an excellent job demonstrating the parallels and differences between his own and Pres Obama's (very comparable) life experiences and (very different) attitudes/priorities. The film is very much fact-based; any speculation is clearly identified as such.
Interviews with and quotes from friends & family of Pres Obama, and experts such as Daniel Pipes (Middle East Forum) and former David Walker (former US Comptroller General), provided thought-provoking and insightful commentary.
All American voters should see this movie to gain a much deeper understanding of the motivations of Pres Obama. D'Souza's theory goes a long way toward explaining many of the otherwise inexplicable actions and policies of the current President.
Pros well paced, great story, factual info, speculation was identified as such
Yes, I recommend this movie.
