Obama's America: Unmaking the American Dream - Political Analysis Book on US Presidency & Social Change - Perfect for History Buffs & Political Science Students

Obama's America - Unmaking the American Dream, is another, vital, unbelievably knowledgeable, and incredibly important book by Dinesh D'Souza, that argues that to save America from becoming a 2nd rate, impotent nation, subject to nuclear blackmail and dissolution by other nations.In his first book on this subject, which I highly recommend, The Roots of Obama's Rage, he introduces the thesis that is the central argument in this book, also. I also recommend that everyone read my review of his first book, "Destroying America by Our Islamist, Anti-Colonialist, Worst President". The title is similar, but this review, as this book does, elaborates on how Obama has applied and will continue to apply his basic beliefs, values, and ideals, all to the detriment of America.The precept, that Dinesh introduces so thoroughly, with voluminous documentation and numerous examples, is that President Hussein Obama Jr. has wholly internalized Obama Sr.'s anti-colonialist, anti-capitalist, anti-Imperialist ideology. That ideology was partially formed by his uber-liberal mother, who abandoned him just as Obama Sr. did. We, the USA, are the neo-colonialist, the neo-Imperialist power that must be brought to heel, that must be diminished to impotency.It is Obama's basic beliefs, ideals, and values that shape who he is, and what he says and does as President. Without that basic knowledge and understanding, then much of what Obama says and does is so inconsistent and puzzling that even liberals are left wondering.Now, Dinesh says that Obama wants what is good for America. It is just that Obama's idea of what is good for America is actually bad for America. I.E. Obama is a patriot, and his patriotism is going to go far towards not just diminishing America, but destroying America.The 1st chapter, "Inner Compass" is spent covering why Obama is what he is. Dinesh elaborates on, and adds to, what he stated in The Roots of Obama's Rage. The 2nd Chapter, "Invisible Man" explains why Obama wants to remain a mystery. There is no way that even ½ of the Democrats would support him if he actually spoke out openly and told them what he really believes.Chapters 3, "Absentee Father", and 4, "Mommie Dearest" elaborate on how Obama's missing in action parents affected him, absolutely for the worst.Reading the reviews of this book on Amazon that are not approving of it are not very enlightening; they are either short blusterous hate filled screeds, personal attacks on Dinesh, Democratic talking points in favor of Obama, or Libertarian volleys against everyone. Regardless, there is no thought or analysis that went into any of those reviews.The single largest problem with the folks who support Obama is that they are not open minded, they do not think critically, and they do not consider any information they don't already agree with. Since their faith and belief in him is an emotional event, similar to a religious experience, facts, logic, and documentation are not going to sway their adoring doe-eyed rose-colored glasses view of him. I give Dinesh all the credit in the world for documenting the basic values, beliefs, and ideals of President Barack Hussein Obama, but, having read the idiotic detracting reviews of this book on Amazon, the divide in America is a yawning chasm that only a 2nd civil war may close.Chapter 5 "Obama's Founding Fathers" lists Dinesh's beliefs of the folks who affected him most after his Dad (& Mom) and Frank Marshall Davis (Communist that Obama lovers love to love). All of the others Dinesh says Obama sought out.At Columbia University Obama had Edward Said as a professor and kept him as a constantly communicating friend for 20 years. Said is a nominal "Christian" who is a huge anti-colonialist, who believes colonialism and imperialism, by Europe and America, have deeply hurt the Middle East. His book, Orientalism, which I do not recommend, and others he has authored, have done a great deal of harm to the Middle East Study departments of almost all of our Universities and to the Middle East, giving them an excuse for their lousy economies. It is a "blame imperialist white men for everything" mindset, and it is a pile of refuse. That Obama was positively influenced by Said is very bad for America. He also befriended Rashid Khalidi, an Islamist and Muslim Brotherhood supporter, who was Said's successor at Columbia.There is Brazilian socialist Roberto Mangabeira, Bill Ayers, and the Reverend Wright. As Dinesh writes, "Never before has America had a president tutored by a Communist and part-time pornographer; by a `professor of terror' who advocated armed resistance against America and her allies; by a socialist so radical that he was ejected by the foreign socialist government he served in; by an incendiary theologian whose philosophy can be summed up in the phrase "God damn America; and by a former terrorist who, like Osama bin Laden, attempted to blow up the pentagon and other symbols of American Power."The Reverend Wright was Obama's pastor for 20 years, who performed the vows of marriage. Obama chose Wright because he agrees with Wrights anti-colonialist, anti-imperialist, anti-American views. Obama threw him under the bus in 2008 because he couldn't have Wright or anyone else expose the actual beliefs, values, and ideals that Obama has. Obama is too selfish to stand by someone that embarrasses him by telling the truth about who he is. In Obamas race speech in which he ditched Wright, he changed the subject from America being the Hegemonic evil in the world to race relations. Obama understands that patience is a virtue. He can't diminish America in one fell swoop, it will take eight years to make enough progress that it will be near impossible to reverse.Even if that doesn't terminally condemn Obama, there is far worse to come.Chapter 6, "Sellouts" covers how Obama has abandoned any member of his family that doesn't agree with him and that doesn't help his political career. Chapter 7, "Certificates of Absolution" show that Obama is not a race challenger, like Jesse Jackson, but is a bargainer, who gives whites the benefit of doubt about them being racists, so the whites are immediately relieved and thrilled. Obama plays this routine like a harp from hell. He grants whites an absolution from racism, so they clamor to do anything to support him. Weak minded, tottering, irrelevant fools, all.Chapter 8, "The Wealth They Didn't Earn" Tax the middle class, and destroy the economy. Obamacare, like Canadacare, will result in long lines, fewer doctors and higher costs. The Independent Advisory Payment Board is a death panel, limiting costs by limiting payments, until doctors cannot stay in business. Then care will be rationed. Health care delayed is a death sentence.Chapter 9, "Drilling There But Not Here" Pay the Saudis so they can keep putting up hundreds of Mosques across the US. Pay Brazil to drill, but not here. Dinesh doesn't have a chapter on Climate Change and how windmills and solar are terrible energy sources. He will starve the USA of cheap, affordable, clean energy. Nuclear energy is the only viable option.Chapter 10, "Disarming the Rogue Nation" Of course, we, the USA, are the Rogue Nation. Dinesh covers how carefully Obama must act as he slowly destroys America and turns us into a 2nd class nation, unable to influence international events or even defend ourselves. If he works too fast even Democrats will wake up. Iran, Pakistan, China, North Korea, and maybe Turkey, Egypt, and Saudi Arabia will still have nukes, even if the US does not. Nuclear blackmail is in our future if Obama wins a 2nd term.For example, Obama has no problem with Iran becoming a Nuclear Power. He has cut anti-ballistic missile defense and research money and priorities. The easiest way for Iran to destroy the Little Satan, Israel, is to destroy us, the Great Satan, first. How can they do that? Easily, through an EMP attack. I highly recommend One Second After, by William Forstchen, and my review of it, titled "Permanent Civilization Killer".Obama says nice words; he has Israel's "back", he knows we cannot contain a Nuclear Iran, we "must" not allow Iran to become a Nuclear power. Sanctions are not working, and will not work. Anybody that believes that Obama is willing to save America from this mortal danger by going to war to prevent it, which is the only option left, is a fool. Netanyahu is correct. We must smash Iran's enrichment capabilities before it is too late - for the USA. An Iran with nuclear weapons is a clear and present danger to the USA.Chapter 11, "The Jihadi As Freedom Fighter" It is here that Dinesh makes his one big error. He speaks about how people have wasted their time, thinking and trying to prove that Obama was a Muslim when he never was. Dinesh writes about how completely secular his father and stepfather were and that Obama has the same secular values.Dinesh, in 2007, wrote a book, titled The Enemy At Home: The Cultural Left and Its Responsibility for 9/11. I do not recommend this book. I do recommend my review of it, titled "A Book Better Left Unwritten". Dinesh D'Souza doesn't know enough about Islam to have an opinion worth having, and in today's world, that is a mortal deficiency in any political author, especially one writing about Obama.I have spent over 10,000 hours studying Islam, making presentations, and writing about Islam and how horrid its basic values, beliefs, and ideals are since 9/11. Dinesh depended on Obama's two books, and I have read and reviewed them in regards to Islam. I recommend Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance(1 star rating) and my review of it, titled "Islamist Apostate? Or Islamist?" I also recommend The Audacity of Hope Thoughts on Reclaiming the American Dream(1 star rating), and my review of it titled "Our Islamist President and Defeating America."As I state in those reviews, and in my documentation to support those two reviews, anyone who supported or voted for Obama wants the USA to lose this war and become an Islamist nation 5 to 15 years sooner than if McCain was elected, or 15 to 20 years sooner than if Obama is re-elected instead of Mitt Romney. Plus, anyone who supports Obama or votes for him might as well be on the side of these IslamoNazis that are successfully working to take over the world and destroy Western Civilization.There is nothing inconsistent with Dinesh's thesis combined with the fact that Obama is a Muslim. He is not on the side of al-Qaeda and the Islamists that want to cut our heads off and blow us up, but he is on the side of the Stealth Jihadis of the Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas, and CAIR and most of the rest of the alphabet soup of Islamists here in America.Chapter 12 "Our Arab Winter" Actually it is Our Muslim Brotherhood Winter. The MB is the parent organization of many of the alphabet soup of Islamist organizations in the Middle East. Obama has surrendered the peaceful Muslims, and the USA, to the Jihadists.Chapter 13 "Debt As A Weapon of Mass Destruction" Our Great Depression was the single deepest and longest depression of any nation on the earth. Why? The Keynesian spending and regulatory nightmare of FDR. We know better now, but we are repeating history. Why? Obama doesn't think the debt is a problem. One way the debt hurts is that there is no money for an effective military. Defense Secretary Panetta has stated that the defense cuts will seriously denigrate our ability to affect Iran, which is vital to the survival of the USA.Chapter 14 "Big Daddy" Covers Obama's egotism and narcissism.Chapter 15-"Surviving Obama". There is no good way to survive a 2nd term. He will use Executive Orders and Departmental Administrative Law to do what Congress won't allow.Obama is the single worst President the USA has ever had.This is a great book.
