(Newswire.net — July 25, 2014) Thomson, Illinois — If there was no United States, today’s world would be dramatically different, void of democracy and facing a dire choice of worldviews and political systems.
So says Dinesh D’Souza in an engaging new interview with Off The Grid Radio that was recorded this week, just as his new hit political documentary heads into its fourth weekend in theaters.
“If America wasn’t around, the Soviet Union might still be intact, and the world today might be choosing between Islamic radicalism on the one hand or Soviet and Chinese communism on the other,” D’Souza said.
D’Souza’s movie, America: Imagine A World Without Her, turns the politically correct view of American history on its head, and he didn’t pull any rhetorical punches in his radio interview. D’Souza touched on both history and politics and told Off The Grid Radio:
— How even Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter disagree with President Obama’s worldview.
— What the Left gets radically wrong about the facts of America’s Westward expansion.
— How a study of immigration and world history would change how students view the removal of the Native Americans.
— Where textbooks and history books go off track in teaching American history.
— Why the “extreme” views of Obama’s heroes and mentors truly matter.
Tragically, D’Souza said, the textbooks that children and college students read omit what’s good and “unique” about America.
“Most societies look down upon the merchant and the entrepreneur, and if you really look at the history and story of America, it’s a story of innovation, entrepreneurship and trade,” D’Souza said. “This is the epic not of conquest but of wealth creation. [The Left] excludes this entire history from American history. Why? Because they want to portray American history as nothing more than … the worst form of the epic of conquest.”
