Katrina and Steve ... or anyone that did get a chance to watch it - in your opinion, what did you see/hear that has caused the removal of the video at all three locations?

I only got to watch part of it, about half, and the video wouldn't load any
more of the video, after hours of waiting...
I think this link still works if you want to see it. That doesn't answer
your question, tho.

Well, I guess it's just a trailer... :?
BUT here is Obama's response to the movie, which I thought was quite
interesing. They can make a biased movie about GW Bush, but don't you
DARE make one about Obama!

It’s not every day that a guy provokes the rage of the President of the United States.

Now the President has launched a ferocious attack against me and my film "2016: Obama’s America." Posting his comments on barackobama.com, Obama calls the film “an insidious attempt to dishonestly smear” him by engaging in “subterranean conspiracy theories and false, partisan attacks.”

For weeks the President tried to ignore the film, no doubt hoping that it would go away. Unfortunately for Obama, the film has continued to gain momentum. It has been seen by more than 2 million people, earned more than $27 million, and become the second biggest political documentary of all time.

So now he has decided to come out with guns blazing. Yet what a clumsy, ill-aimed and misleading blast this is. It begins with a quotation deploring “smear journalism.” We read that this quotation is from the “Columbia Journalism Review on "2016: Obama’s America.” Yet the Columbia Journalism Review article was published in September 2010, nearly two years before the film came out! It turns out that the magazine was critiquing one of my earlier books. "The Roots of Obama’s Rage."

Apparently relying on a range of left-wing discredited sources, Obama lists what it takes to be four “flat-out falsehoods.” Let me list and address them in turn.

>> D’Souza falsely claimed that President Obama said he didn’t believe in American exceptionalism.” Oh really? Obama was asked in 2009 whether he believed in American exceptionalism. He replied that he did, just as the Brits believe in British exceptionalism and the Greeks in Greek exceptionalism. The clear implication of Obama’s remarks is that if everyone thinks they are exceptional, no one really is.

>> “D’Souza falsely asserted that President Obama funded $2 billion in Brazilian oil exploration.” The Obama team claims that Obama had “nothing to do with the loan.” Well, the undisputed fact is that the Export-Import Bank awarded more than $2 billion in loans and loan guarantees to Brazil. The Export-Import Bank is a U.S. government agency and policy for the agency is set by the Obama administration. So how can the Obama administration escape responsibility for its own policies?

Moreover, we know that Obama himself approves of the policy. In 2011, Obama went to Brazil, a country where, as he put it, “the legacy of colonialism is still fresh.” There, on March 19, 2011, he reminded the Brazilians of American support for Brazilian oil exploration, and added, “We want to help with technology and support to develop these oil reserves safely, and when you’re ready to start selling, we want to be one of your best customers.”



Moreover, Obama’s Brazil subsidy is not an isolated case; the Obama administration has -- again through the Export-Import Bank -- awarded billions to Mexico and Colombia for oil drilling and refining in those countries.

2016: Obama's America Illegally Uploaded To YouTube; False Information Spread About TV Airing, says O.A.F., LLC

By O.A.F., LLC

Published: Monday, Sep. 24, 2012 - 12:05 PM



/PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The producers of the blockbuster movie 2016: Obama's America are crying foul against what they suspect to be an organized effort to drive viewers away from the theatrical showing of the film. False Internet rumors have been circulating all week, stating that Fox News Channel had scheduled a free airing of the film. No such airing was scheduled. The movie also sustained a second attack over the weekend when it was illegally uploaded to YouTube in violation of U.S. Copyright laws.

"The reports of the movie appearing on Fox before the election are completely untrue and we strongly suspect that they are the result of dirty tricks by our opponents who spread this rumor in order to confuse the general public and keep them from going to their local theaters," said the film's writer/director Dinesh D'Souza."We urge all Americans to ignore these efforts and go to their local theater and enjoy the movie on the big screen."
A second attack on the film came when it was illegally uploaded to the Internet. Although it has since been taken down by YouTube for copyright infringement, producers are issuing a clear warning that violators will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

"It has now been taken down and we have informed the FBI which is launching a vigorous investigation," noted producer Doug Sain. "We urge all Americans to respect the copyright of this film and not place themselves in legal jeopardy by engaging in illegal activity in the form of viewing or downloading the movie online."
"We have not been approached by any television network to air the film," added D'Souza. "We will have an announcement soon about our plans for DVD, but for now we urge all Americans to enjoy the film in their local theater."
"Love him or hate him, you don't know him." 2016: Obama's America is the definitive account of how one man's past could redefine a nation and where we will be in 2016 if Obama remains in the White House.

Just so all you folks don't get your undies in a wad trying to make up bigger conspiracy stories- here is the "facts" as released by the company that made the film....

As usual- the reason it was removed from Youtube is because of copyright infringement and that those posting it didn't have the right to- which I've found has been the reason most of the Youtubes that are jerked have been..

I would say copyright violations.

there is nothing in the movie that isn't public knowledge.. it is all just put together in a well thought out way.

it does bring out two things.. our acceptance of minorities/racism is more in how they are presented.. either in a bargain or challenge method...

Jackson, Sharpton are examples of challenge.. they challenge us in an antagonistic way to force US to accept them... and it doesn't work...

while Obama used the bargain method.. (if you vote for me. you are not a racist).. which appeals to a broader base..

and how Obama's roots and thinking are not like ours but more like an immigrants..

it is worth seeing.

if anything it will make most of US realize the liberal argument of US being racists is hogwash... something we already know, but can't always articulate..

more of the video, after hours of waiting...

it probably completely downloaded but the program stalled.. because your temporary allotted space was exceeded and it can't figure out what to delete.

if it does load from a remote site and stalls.. go to the youtube link.. and it may re-load and play.. a quirk of programing allows the program to finish..

secondly,.. try moving the you are here in the film button to near the end,.. and it should play ,.. then move it back to just before it stalled.


I understand that many will not be able to see it due to it not showing in your area... but if you can. it is worth seeing..
