for them, but I hate to tell you if they wasted their money on that garbage they are already inclined in that direction

Obviously they do not care about the war on women, social security, medicare, or the supreme court

Forgive me if I'm wrong about this, but I don't think a progressive leaning person would go to see it except maybe to debunk it.

Good luck though.

On edit: I found this this debunking, posted by Canuckistan, in another thread. It's very good.

Have them watch this

http://www.democraticunderground.com/101753968

Maher points out that "Obamacare" was a Republican idea and Dinesh D’Souza decides to re-invent reality by disagreeing.

He quickly has a new one torn and then another and then another.

It may not be possible to effect a change, depending on where they were going in. There will always be that 30%. Well, "always" for the next five years or so.
