And that's the memo now reaction joining us from New York Dinesh D'Souza he's the author of the new book Obama's America the -- making of the American dream.

And he joins us now.

All right did Nash job tell me what you think and Joseph Biden -- still.

Provide late night comics -- a lot of fodder but there's serious issues at hand in this country is facing cataclysmic challenges.

Well I think Biden's distinguishing mark is kind of his -- a frantic on devotion to -- -- by the -- -- -- -- in my new -- 2016 and -- He basically accuses me of linking Barack Obama with his alcoholic father and of course Barack Obama's father was an alcoholic.

And he says I'm also saying that Obama shares this father is anti colonial dream and of course Obama wrote the book dreams from my father.

So Biden is and it's customary way on known for around.

Make it a bit of a fool of himself.

While -- Biden it can't be helping Barack Obama as as being considered serious.

-- individual to take over the presidency mean not if one republic -- Had said it one of the things that Biden has said in the past two weeks.

There'd be no and to be.

Media had a line to get him removed from the ticket money might be good for Republicans to have Biden on a ticket but how does a good for the country.

Well it -- really seems hard to believe that four years ago Biden was brought on the ticket as a statesman who would add gravitas but then of course let's remember that four years ago Barack Obama was seen as a healer and unifier.

Well that's that's true and when you when you move on to -- Niall Ferguson's.

Front page cover story Newsweek at its stand out hit the road Barack where you go through all of the failed promises of this administration.

One after the other from.

His his promise about dealing with the financial industry to his promise about jobs and and on one of to the next indicator.

This man has failed but he's a celebrity hangs around Clooney in and -- torrent Sarah Jessica Parker and and apparently the cool factor he thanks is gonna get him over the edge.

Lord here I wanted dissent a little bit from the Neil Ferguson article because I think -- it makes a Cogent case against Obama.

It has a premise that is fundamentally wrong the premise is that Obama is that a -- alert he's an amateur he promised next but he didn't know how to deliver.

And he's falling short of its promises.

The I don't think that's it at all I think that Obama actually has a very different goal for America than we often think.

-- he wants to redistribute money away from America and toward the rest of the world.

He wants to block oil drilling over here but promoted and other countries he wants America to have a smaller footprint in the world.

And specifically in the Middle East so the point is -- bowl -- Obama is often portrayed as getting results opposite to what he intends whereas in my view he intends the results he's getting.

So he's trying to attack the US economy is that I -- well he's trying to add to produce a massive shift of wealth away from the United States and -- the rest of the world now this is not because he hates America all he's a -- or any of that stuff.

It's because he subscribes to an ideology that sees it as good for America.

To have a smaller economy a more modest role in the world.

So you're saying is American families be damn that and so the president sees people really suffering out there they'll Rust -- and and people who are working two jobs or underemployed -- just given up for work out looking for work at all.

That he's not really concerned with that because he wants to remake everything and some new European and -- so if people be -- This is not about -- of this is really about the world and I think when most people look at Obama and they think of the 1% to 99% they think that Obama's talking only in America whereas I think Obama supplying a global standard so let's remember that even.

Middle class Americans even more Americans are rich by world standards and not -- single -- -- isn't particularly concerned if money is redistributed away from them.

-- -- people and -- did you narrow -- by.
