CAN AMERICA SURVIVE FOUR MORE YEARS OF BARACK OBAMA?
No, because America as we know it—wealthy, powerful, assertive—is not what Obama wants. He wants a smaller America, a poorer America, and America unable to exert its will, and America happy to be one that other nations might rise—all in the name of global fairness. To Obama, the hated "one percent" isn't just wealthy Americans; it is America itself. In Obama's view, America needs to be taken down a notch.
That is the startling conclusion of bestselling author Dinesh D'Souza. Building on his previous bestseller on Barack Obama, The Roots of Obama's Rage—which Newt Gingrich called, "Stunning the most profound insight I have read in the last six years"—D'Souza shows how Obama's goal to downsize America is in plain sight but ignored by everyone.
D'Souza lays out what Obama plans to do in a second administration—a makeover of America so drastic that the "shining city on a hill" will become a shantytown in a rather dangerous global village.

Members of the Obama cult will have a hard time refuting the well documented, multi-year research of D'Souza into the most invisible President in US history. The White House and their captured media will certainly try every thing to suppress this book and the recently released movie "2016" detailing it. Surprised you haven't heard about it yet?? I just hope B&N's review policy isn't under the thumb of Obama as well... Possibly one of the most important political books in US history details how the first unvetted, highly intelligent bi-racial US President has studied the current USA's power structure to find its ultimate weaknesses - media worship, white guilt, entitlement culture and obliviousness to the consequences of a ballooning national debt to name a few - to severely downsize the USA's wealth and ultimately destroy US neocolonialism, the ultimate target of Barack Hussein Obama and thereby fulfill his father's dreams. What no one in the Obama cult wants you to know: Abandoned by his black father before birth and his white mother by age 10, BHO's adopted founding fathers include: Communist Frank Marshall Davis, Palestinian radical Edward Said, Brazilian Socialist Roberto Unger; revolutionary preacher Jeremiah Wright & terrorist Bill Ayers. But to understand BHO Jr. you have to understand BHO Sr., whose dreams Jr. holds dear to his heart (read "Dreams From My Father") and as a prime motivator, perhaps to find some final acceptance for the lifelong plight his absentee father and self absorbed mother abandoned him into. Both liberal and conservative pundits have totally missed Obama's reasons for his hypocrisies and his ultimate motivations (both foreign and domestic). How could the President of the USA want to destroy the lone world super power and guardian of liberty? It is sacrilege to even discuss that, right? Chris Matthews, Jonathan Alter and other Obama cheerleaders will be ultimately be remembered as the talking heads who greased the wheel of the Obama machine as it achieves it's goals when economic disaster humbles America and the BRIC countries take control of the world stage. Conservative pundits paint BHO is inept or an "Amateur", but he has achieved much on his path to USA ruin during his first term. BHO's will go down in history as the greatest charlatan of all times, by taking down the lone world super power (or at least severely accelerating its decline) in 8 short years, if elected to a 2nd term. Call me delusional, but I care for nothing more than my kids and this country. D'Souza ranks up there with some the USA's greatest patriots for finally making sense of the Obama cult's true plan of action and their penchant for outright lies and distortions. Ignore this book at your and the USA's peril...Tuesday, November 6, 2012 will be another USA date the lives in infamy if Obama is reelected! You can ignore this book and discredit this review, but you cannot ignore Obama's own words and writings which are used expertly to support D'Souza's theories on the invisible man who has hoodwinked most of the US population!

While US and British intelligence were befuddled at not finding any weapons of mass destruction in Iraq (though we know Saddam had & used them on his own people), leave it to D'Souza to locate the most destructive anti-American weapon in the US: the mind of Barack Hussein Obama. Need proof? This book is so replete with evidence that Obama is an uncaring (Obama's brother lives penniless in Kenya), anti colonial leader bent on bringing his own country down to mediocrity - warning: if you care about America's position in the world, this book will make you sick and angry. Obama perhaps should have sought out a career in acting. All politicians are great at lying, but the 44th president has perfected the art of deception within a paradigm full of lies. "Obama's America" provides rich insight into how well he is using smoke and mirrors: the US is unknowingly metamorphizing into exactly what Obama seeks: a second-rate power that ranks among the mediocre nations with respect to all significant socioeconomic and national defense matters. D'Souza's writing is as clear as Obama's mission is ominous; the author's thesis, that Obama is furtively (but not covertly enough, thanks to D'Souza) "unmaking the American dream" (subtitle of the book), is proved through chapter and verse in this ultimately dangerous polemic. I use "dangerous" deliberately because, once readers have gone through this book at least twice, the number and severity of examples given to prove the author correct - domestically and internationally, socioeconomically and geopolitically - are shockingly accurate. Consider the following, only a small sample of the surgery Obama has thus far performed on the American populace to disfigure what was once the inspiration of the world and the "last, best hope" for millions of Americans and immigrants seeking a better life in what was once a better nation: 1. The self-proclaimed environmentalist has spent billions of US taxpayer money so that other nations in Latin America can drill for oil for their own use. Why? The US should rather seek to be less dependent on foreign oil, and accept friendly offers from allies close to home (e.g. Canada), but the hypocrite in the White House instead seeks to reduce the US at the expense of the middle class taxpayer and gas purchaser; 2. D'Souza gives ample evidence of how Obama's upbringing and education led him to become an anti colonialist. Through this ideology, Obama has no problem with China and Japan, for example, conducting financial deals in yuan; he has no problem with the average American possessing less wealth; he has no problem with China's benefitting at our increasing deficit - around $1.3 trillion per year under Obama (a fraction of that under Bush 43); he enjoys telling the Russians he'll offer more concessions. Why? Because if the average American has less, America will have less, and Obama will reach his goal of reducing overall American wealth; 3. Obama ultimately seeks to redistribute income around the world: in the great anti colonialist spirit of his father, to be the "global equalizer." Thus the sole superpower must come down. Why offer unnecessary and unasked-for concessions to the Russians? Why pretend to play it tough in Afghanistan and then give the Taliban our exit strategy? Why not help the Egyptians in their struggle against extremist Islam? This may be D'Souza's greatest book. It informs us that, through his own actions,

Funny how all of the one star reviews call this book crap and accuse right wingers of being "anti black". This book is extremely accurate and people are literally standing up and cheering in 2016 the movie. Obama hates America and what it stands for; it's so obvious. What other president in the U.S. has had as many critically scathing books written about them? Those of you that think Obama is so wonderful should b79e honest with yourselves. Are you better off now than you were four years ago? Or, do you just want a black president at any cost? NOBAMA 2012!!!!!

This pile of steaming crap lies on every page. The republicans almost destroyed this country, then announce that their ONLY goal is to make Obana a one term president. Gee. How patriotic. NOT. Dnoush's childish whining is petulant, irritating, and completely untruthful.

This author's insightful descriptions of the ambition and purpose of an Obama presidency is as illuminating as it is frightening. If D'Sousa is correct in his theory it is even more outrageous how the media has declined to vett Obama as a candidate and now as President. It is amazing that his background, education, family ties, and political associates have been dismissed as any influence worth reporting. As hard as it is to imagine that a President would have delibrate motives to marginalize the American influence it is even more astomishing that the majority of the media has made it this easy for him and that the public so ignorant. This book has to read to be believed. Obama should not and cannot win re-election.

This is an excellent review of backgrounding of President Obama, despite his efforts to conceal his past. Well documented and vetted with excellent footnotes to support the information contained within.
President Obama has the distinction of being the least investigated person to assume the office of Commander in Chief of this country.
The only information about his childhood, his education, his mentors and his political philosophy is what he has presented in his two "autobiographies" that he alleges he has written before reaching age 45. Even those two autobiographies are questionable as to who authored them. He has expended millions of dollars to successfully, so far, conceal all records of his schooling, travels, source of financing for his education and his relationships with various people of less than honorable disposition. For a man who campaigned on the premise of "openness, transparency, honesty and integrity", he has certainly violated every one of those traits.

This book is very insightful. A very good read. Wake up America.
To the negative reviews of this book: Why are you liberals so full of hate? Did any of you even read the book? Or did you just say to yourselves, "Hey look: conservative book! Let's trash it in the comments section!"

Just another well known rightwing propagandist doing what he can to dupe
the low information yahoos into voting for the political stooges who
will strive to make our neocon, quasi-fascist Plutocracy, with its
modern robber barons living the life as it existed in the first Gilded
Age, even stronger. The middle class, which is rapidly disappering needs
to pay attention to the tripe being fed them and think about what is in
store for them.

Find out why Obama says he's not finished yet. He is right, read what is in-store for our future. Find out why he turned down the pipeline, but gave $747 ml. dollars to Columbia to build a pipeline for their country and made sure we do not reap any of the benefits. If you use your nook there are websites you came click on and read the facts, right on your nook. This is a must read for everyone in America-get your head out of the sand. The book is more complete than the movie. Truely it will scare you, but be informed. His father's dream is now his.

I really enjoyed iti. it reinforced what I thought I knew. Showed a lot of research to back up what he wrote. Should be required reading for all - especially Democrats. Might open a few eyes and show how sneaky he goes about getting his agenda done - under the radar and the American people have no idea what is being done to them.

Bama lama ding dongs supporters want ppl to believe he is a god. He is anything but. He is an illigal president, hates america and all she stands for, hates the military and in 4 years time has raised the natiinal debt to double what it was from washington to bush. We cannot afford another four years of this miserable muslim. He is dangerous and i feel sorry for the ppl who refuse to see that simply because they are salivating over the fact that he is black. He is the worst president this country has ever had and all republicans meeds to stand up and vote this idiot out of office before the taliban and al guaeda takes over this country with hisb,essings.

In civics we are learning about how immigrants arent allowed to hold office. Obama is not only a terrible president but an immigrant. He is an illegal president. He should have never been running for president. And he ruined our economy. Im NOT saying this just because hes black and im white. One of my best friends is black. Do not vote for him. He will only bankrupt america and all the hard work of our forefathers will be DESTROYED!!! America is too much in debt and we do not deserve to go down until we are one of those mini countries that belong to other, larger countries.
