He was influenced by the people of Indonesia more so than by anyone in the US. His Mom was a flaming socialist who became the second, or third, wife of a Communist. As I have been saying since the Spring of 2008, the President has no connnection with American culture. I don't care if he is listed as being born on Mars, he was not in the US during the formulative years of his life.<br /> <br />I also was fascinated by the part in the movie that explained the obvious to all of us Southerners. The US has this overwhelming guilt concerning the Blacks of this country. Therefore, we as individuals, and as political entities, go out of our way to "prove" that we aren't prejudiced against Blacks. The Blacks have learned how to use this guilt to get numerous political concessions. <br /> <br />In my opinion, and in the words of Mark Twain, there were a couple of stretchers in the movie. The main one being on the map of the world showing the numbers of nuclear warheads. It shows N. Korea with 90. There is no one in the DoD that I've ever came across that would spot N. Korea more than 3 - 5 warheads at this time.<br /> <br />One other issue that begs more discussion is what the heck is the guy, Ayers I think was his name, doing teaching at an American university if he carried out bomb attacks as a Weather Underground terrorist in the '60s and '70s?<br /> <br />All in all it is a thought provoking movie and worth watching. The charge is the same for Republicans and Democrats. No freebies here.<br />Alanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17642895236924949511noreply@blogger.com
