A conservative, California-based filmmaker said this week that his company is distributing more than a million free copies of a conspiracy-laden DVD that claims much of what the public knows about President Barack Obama's early life is false.
The movie called "Dreams From My Real Father" began appearing in Central Florida mailboxes sometime last week.
It is the work of Joel Gilbert, a director whose other movies have focused on everything from militant Islam to Bob Dylan to Elvis Presley. He said the DVD is being sent to swing states, including Florida and Ohio, but would not say who is financing the project or how much the distribution costs.
Gilbert's central and widely denounced claim is that Obama's father was not a Kenyan named Barack Obama but a black poet and journalist named Frank Marshall Davis. Marshall was a labor activist investigated in the 1940s and 1950s for ties to the American Communist Party.

Mission Accomplished!
I would just love to receive a copy of this DVD, however, I live in one of the bluest of blue states and they rightly don’t need to throw good money here.
I want one too. Might find them on Ebay, I haven’t looked yet.
It is available on Netflix instant download. Use free trial to watch.
I watched it on netflix a couple weeks ago. Highly recommend.
For the money, Netflix is one of the best entertainment options out there. I view it on my 60in LED, not my computer. I prefer old tv shows and movies to the crap that is put out today.
It is available on Netflix streaming. I watched it last weekend, and even though I am well versed in 0bama’s sordid history, it was a real eye opener.
I am an Amazon Prime member and I just checked Amazon. I can stream it for free and rent it for 2.95. NEAT!!!
What needs to happen is for some rich R benefactor to buy a whole cable channel for the entire week before an election. Heck there’s plenty of crap channels that are carried on most cable systems to choose from, then run “2016” and this video non-stop.
LOL! Great idea!
I love Netflix instant streaming! I watch it on my big screen TV through my Blu-Ray player. I watch old Leave it to Beaver episodes, Adam 12, Star Trek, and tons of old movies. I might add Hulu Plus as well. They have some things that Netflix doesn’t have. You’re right. It sure beats what they have on TV today, especially what they’re trying to pass off as comedy.
Yeah, I’ve watched several series from first to last. Just finished The Andy Griffith Show, one of my all time favorites. James Bond movies are going off Nov 1 so that’s what I’ve been watching the past few nights.
We have Amazon Prime also but I’m not as into that one. It isn’t as user friendly. I might subscribe to Hulu Plus as well for the same reasons as yours.
Galileos central and widely denounced claim is that the Earth orbits the sun.
At first I also LOL, but then seriously, someone like Trump, the Koch brothers - anyone with the bucks who wants to Fight for America, Could Do This. Let the radio and TV talkers hawk it and a lot of Americans would watch it, if nothing else, out of curiosity. If it's on 24/7, a lot of people would see them. If Ohio and a few other states come down to 100,000 votes, this could swing it. Any takers?
Below are links that thoroughly debunk claims made in the DVD....
This first picture is a link to a YouTube video which proves the girl in this DVD is NOT Stanley Ann Dunham...
This image of some other fine DVD's by Director Joel Glbert is a link to a website that contains an in-depth look into Gilbert and Dreams from My Real Father...including an interview with the man who actually owns the home Frank Marshall Davis lived in. All information is sourced and linked where possible.
BOOOO-OOOOO-OOOOOO-GUS!
The fact that so many women are photographed in the same setting and wearing the same jewelry and outfits indicates that this stuff was reused from model to model. It doesn't prove that Ann was not one among them.
The photographs Gilbert discovered only have a little resemblence to the photographs which John Ray discovered. The only reason I thought they might be the same woman was BECAUSE of the Jewelry and Shoes. Point out that those were put on many different women and the sense of resemblence disappears.
As Fred Nerks pointed out, the Women appear to have different length chins,
with the John Ray photographs showing what appears to be a much longer chin than is shown in the Gilbert Photographs.
LorenC has disproven the Gilbert Photographs well enough, but he has not disproven the John Ray photographs, at least as far as I can tell. If Frank Davis was doing this stuff from the 50s onward, Stanley Ann may just happen to have been one of his sequence of models.
Colorado was the target of this video as well. Nicely done.
Naughty, naughty DL. You are using my images and my name without including me in the discussion.
Maybe we need to go way back to how this entire fiasco started? SOMEONE he says, sent three images from the free-vintage-porn website to a gentleman blogger in Brisbane, Australia, and he published the following comment:

Naughty Obama Mamma
It's amazing what there is on the internet. A geneological researcher has emailed me with three pictures of Obama's mother in the nude. That would be of trivial interest except for the setting in which the picures were taken. They were clearly taken in a sophisticated mid-century apartment and my correspondent suggests that the apartment details could be used to identify the photographer. He feels that the photographer is the Communist "Frank" whom Obama mentions as his mentor. That Frank was so intimate with Obama's mother would support the contention that Frank was in fact Obama's father. Various bloggers have pointed out how similar Obama looks to "Frank" and the coverup of Obama's birth certificate is certainly very suspicious.
I will not post the pictures here as Google would undoubtedly take down this blog as soon as I did. Instead, I have posted the pictures here and here and here.
I give below part of the email from my correspondent:
By pure serendipity I found a photo of what I believe is Stanley Ann Dunham; two more I found through sheer plod. They are taken before Christmas by the decorations and unopened presents. Also a stereo and records that an expert could confirm as jazz records are in view.There is a distinctive grain to the wood floors. I do research including genealogical and had downloaded everything I could find. Not much. So when I saw the picture, I locked on the the ear lobes, chin, eyebrows. It is she. A nude photo,not distasteful, but posed, I believe, by a mature man who knows what he likes, including jazz and now we know young girls. One could ascertain the location of where the photos were taken.
And the shoes..not indigenous to Hawaii,but maybe not unsual for Helen Canfield Chicago socialite and Marshall's second wife. The photos are important in the sense that they explain the going to Chicago and the immediate acceptance by the hard left, if his father is Frank Marshall Davis, not just his mentor...
As a result this hoax has remained alive for THREE YEARS and now you are down to trying to keep it alive by telling us the models shared their earrings and necklaces...because you know it, you are STUCK. There was only ever ONE model. She wasn't Stanley Ann Dunham. And the author of that column never said she was...all he did was pass on something sent to him by an unidentified genealogist? who had no idea who the model was either.
SAME GIRL. SAME GIRL. SAME GIRL. YOU CAN'T MAKE TWO OUT OF ONE.
