America: Imagine the World Without Her

aa s america-imagine-a-world-without-her-lionsgate

Hmm… kind of good, kind of lame. Dinesh D’Souza for anyone unfamiliar with him, is a Republican. That doesn’t make him a bad person, but it does make for a fairly bad film. It would have helped with the power of the message if it had been completely honest instead of just having a Republican perspective.

It focused a lot on the subversive intent of Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton, and their tutelage under Saul Alinsky and William Ayers, but for heaven’s sake, there is a lot more wrong with America than just that bunch. It’s really not a Democrat/Republican thing at all, but D’Souza paints it that way. The Knight on a white charger will be a Republican in D’Souza’s world.

Dinesh does a wonderful job rebutting American history as it is taught now condemning white America. Bolstering our actions as it relates to native Americans, African Americans, Latin Americans and our supposed theft from other countries worldwide. It’s a lot to cram into a couple of hours, but it is invaluable to the generic Republican who is woefully ignorant on these topics (and also for independents like me).

Precious little time was spent on the title’s premise, “Imagine a world without her” (America). That had some potential. The viewer going in felt that the film was going to explore what the world would have been like with America losing the revolutionary war. He went as far as having George Washington being killed on the battlefield, but then he left you hanging. Instead it degenerated into a “Republican good, Democrat bad” show. And while it is true that Democrats have put America in a horrible position, nearly as equally complicit are Republicans. Dinesh also focuses on the Executive Branch and gives the Legislative Branch a pass. Congress is way too guilty for that.

What does give me great respect for Dinesh is the vitriol that comes his way from the Left. As I did a little research on the background of the film and D’Souza, it became clear that liberals truly do revile the man. That right there makes him a peach of a fellow. The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
