US Election: Anti-Obama Documentary Takes In Millions at Box Office

THE DAILY TELEGRAPH: A[n] anti-Obama documentary made by a conservative film maker has proved a surprise hit at the box office, raking in more than $6 million over the weekend and edging out several high-budget Hollywood productions.

Obama 2016 traces President Barack Obama's life from his upbringing in Hawaii to his childhood years in Indonesia and his father's roots in Kenya, arguing that his international background has imbued him with an un-American worldview.

It features an interview with Mr Obama's half-brother, George Obama, who lives in a slum in Nairobi and argues that colonialism was not responsible for Kenya's economic problems.

The documentary also presents a nightmarish version of America at the end of a second Obama term, ending with a warning to voters: "The future is in your hands". » | Raf Sanchez, Tampa | Monday, August 27, 2012
