One of the greatest suppressed news stories of the 2012 election is the success of an anti-Obama documentary movie, “2016 Obama’s America” which started out in just a few theaters and eventually aired in over 2,000. The movie has been a sort of “sleeper hit” slowly building up profits with very little advertising and mostly word-of-mouth helping it along. The movie has pulled in $32 million so far, which is very impressive for a low budget documentary, but as far as the liberal media is concerned, the film doesn’t exist. If the movie had been anti-Romney, the director would be appearing on all the late-night talk shows and the free publicity from Hollywood would be worth millions.

An article from August in the Washington Examiner reports: “Surging popularity in the anti-Obama movie 2016: Obama’s America has dramatically boosted the number of theaters showing it, making the film the second biggest money-maker per-theater behind the The Expendables 2, the nation’s No. 1 flick. Having opened last month in just a single Texas theater and facing complaints from the president’s supporters, 2016: Obama’s America was shown in 169 theaters last weekend and is slated to be in 800 this weekend, producers tell Secrets.”
“Just as shocking: Over the weekend it earned $7,391 per theater, topping huge hits like The Dark Knight Rises [Batman], The Bourne Legacy, and The Campaign. Last weekend, it earned $1,249,000, a 293 percent one-week surge. Expendables 2 earned $8,670 per theater, tops in the country. What’s more, it was the 13th overall money-maker last week, following a movie that was showing in over 1,100 theaters.”
“2016: Obama’s America is based on the conservative author Dinesh D’Souza’s book The Roots of Obama’s Rage, and suggests that the president wants to downsize the influence of the United States. Producer John Sullivan told Secrets that it is popular because ‘people are looking for a different narrative on Obama than they are getting from the mainstream media.’”
They’re looking for the truth, in other words.
The article goes on “Sullivan added that the movie isn’t just doing well in conservative markets. He said that the highest-grossing showings have been in Manhattan and Los Angeles. The timing of the movie’s expansion and popularity isn’t good for the president, though critics have suggested that it is preaching to those already opposed to Obama.”
A lot of Americans know almost nothing about Barack Obama aside from the sanitized mainstream media propaganda. There could easily be a large number of moderates going to the movie, just to educate themselves about Obama, and they’ll be in for a shock. If a movie can influence just a few million people to get out and vote in November, this country might yet have a chance to get rid of a president who has been nothing short of catastrophic for America.
The movie is apparently not available yet in DVD or for download yet, but more information can be found here.
