The wife and I saw it last night. If you care about this country, it is a must see, IMO. More importantly, get every college-age and younger person you can coax to attend it with you. He shines the light on marxist history professor Howard Zinn and his lies and half-truths.
Zinn's version of American history, for all you Common Core supporters, is what you're children will be taught in the future in the publik skools.

I watched it yesterday after seeing the post here.
America is a movie that should be required viewing in every high school social studies class. Every college history course that includes Howard Zinn's A peoples History of America as required reading should also require that students view this movie.

Zinn's version of American history, for all you Common Core supporters, is what you're children will be taught in the future in the publik skools. Apart from his advocacy of socialism as the solution (naive in the extreme), he does make the occasional valid commentary about aspects of American history that are seldom highlighted.

Hawk, are you saying D'Souza is advocating socialism as a solution (to what?)
