Obama's Half Brother

[rsemrysbaby]

Obama, just like the rest of us hardworking, tax paying Americans has forged his own way. Why should his brother be entitled to anything? I have two degrees and two full-time jobs doing what I love, why should my sisters (who live a deadbeat lifestyle) be rewarded for my hard work? I have already voted for Obama and will do so when he seeks a second term in 2012. I've served my country and I now serve my family. I follow politics, so I don't write half-baked nonsense. Vote your choice--I did!

Now go check out how John and Cindy McCain treated Cindy's sisters.

[gordonmd]

Wake the hell up America! Why would you vote for this man?  Can't he at least send his half brother $1.00/month? If he can live like this for $1/month, imagine if he had $2/month.

[cuban8dudeca]

dude come on now. I have 4 half brothers that I don't speak too because my dad left my mom when I was two. I don't even speak to my dad. This is garbage.

[translationwiz]

@gordonmd BRAVO...........best comment Ive ever read on youtube.

[stjdavis]

That fool made 4 million from his book and he cant afford to get his brother a decent place to live?

I a supposed to believe that give gives a chit about my problems.

[667985]

what's a chit?

haha learn to spell dumbshit

[AtlantaSistah]

We don't know the history of his relationship with his brother. This is a family issue. Mind your own business that is going on in your own families.

[shanklinmike]

A man who wants to be my president does not have that luxury! McCain is also horrible!

[AtlantaSistah]

Oh, so stay at home then. Don't vote. do you!

[shanklinmike]

I do vote, I would ask you to research my channel. Any comments will be promptly answered. There is a 3rd party candidate who has polled as high as 15% in some states and 7% nationwide and growing. Neither the republicans or democrats are following our once prosperous liberty-minded constitutional democratic-republic. The sad truth is without individualism over coerced collectivism, prosperity, peace, and civil liberties are unattainable. Thank you for your time.

Cheap is cheap.

Obama said in his convention to millions of people that he is his brother's keeper-he makes millions-he could help his brother-I won't vote for him because he himself uses more George Bush oil than a small nation and won't vote to get it to us. He abuses and we are not suppost to use. When he voted to block drilling his vote blocked oil and natural gas drilling-natural gas is the only proven alternative fuel that we can get right now. We can make our cities change building codes and put in this

[akuraoo]

In this video George Obama never asked for help from the Senator, nor did he said he wanted to move to the US. Remember George has older middle class brothers and sisters who grew up in Kenya and are in constant contact with the senator! Surely, you don't expect the senator to micromanage his Kenyan part of the family, disregarding cultural norms which he is not familiar with! I am sure this story is as shocking to senator Obama as it is shocking to many of us.

[coffeeusa]

He said at his convetion that he is his brother's keeper-he can't even help his own blood and you think he will help the American people -yes- I do expect him to help him-Obama worked in Chicago for years-that was his claim to fame helping with housing an commuity centers for the poor-please

And I bet you beleive that the millions of gallons of George bush oil this man uses just on his campaign and air travel is really not George Bush oil--he won't vote to drill for oil and natural gas for us

[jackzmack]

I believe CNN reported once that Senator Obama does have a brother who lives in poverty in Kenya. Unless CNN reported this falsely, this story is true. I think it only became an issue when the Senator declared in his wonderful speech that he is HIS BROTHER'S KEEPER.

[vdarte]

This is a lie brought to you by the same bottom feeders who smeared John Kerry's good name with their rotten tactics. Read the (London) Timesonline Aug 22. George is supported by his mother who lives in the U.S. People, don't believe everything on the Internet. There ARE those who would stoop to any despicable means to achieve their goals.

[coffeeusa]

and I bet you belive that Obama's convention and the oil he uses himself in his private jet is not George Bush oil-he himself uses more Bush oil than a small nation and he won't vote for oil and natural gas for us-and you will follow him to the gates of hell while he is lauging his butt off at anyone he can sucker-His claim to fame is he was a community organizer in Chicago-that he said publicaly was the best training in life he ever had-helping those that had nothing. Not only CNN found him

[ondjima]

I saw "Obama and Biden" spelled out on a banner out of the side of my eye, it looked like "Osama bin Laden". Am I the first one to realize this?

[ManYooFooty24]

Kenya Dig it?

[mollypierucci]

OMG

can you people just leave the guy alone?

what does this have to do with his ability to rule the nation?

if anything, it should say something about how he connects to 'normal' people in the country.

SHIT!

[graffnameseed]

it kind of does, if he forgets his family who is poor then wat does that say when he is in the seat of power?to it means he will forget the poor people here and work with the people who have money but idk wat ever im not going to even vote it wont matter hes going to win anyway

[coffeeusa]

He is the one who said in his convention (using more Bush oil than a samll nation uses in a year) that he is his brother's keeper. His claim to fame is that he was a community organizer in Chicago and helped the poor with housing.Please. When you run for a public office you are public-I bet you beleive that he blocked drilling for oil and natural gas (the only proven alternative fuel that can get to the American people) that he did this because he cares for you. He abuses oil and we cannot use

BO mentioned George in his book "Dreams From My Father" then actually MET with him during his Africa visit, BO has never denied that George is his brother (at least), but he has never helped him either. Hope indeed.

[frankclau]

So Obama wants to force people to be generous.

But Obama has a brother who lives on $1 a month, yet the great bringer of hope and change has not helped him.

If he cannot bring himself to help his OWN blood, then how can he force people to be charitable?

If he treats his own brother like this, how will he care for the poor of America?

I guess that charity does NOT start at home for Obama. If at all.

[gibzyo99]

Obama has publicly stated that his father abandoned him and his mother at a very early age. He therefore grew up without a father who was busy fathering children all over africa. Any sensible human being can see that it is not his responsibility to take care of all half brothers and sisters all over the world to prove that he is caring. Why not comment on how he is taking care of the kids he has fathered or his wife? Smearing will not cut it!!!!!!!

[frankclau]

bibzyo99:

All BO has to do is send his brother $20 a year and that will almost double Georges income.

Obama promotes the Global Poverty Act, a mandatory tax on Americans to give aid to the world's poor. So if BO is so concerned about the poor of the world then he should start by helping his own brother.

Besides aren't Dems. the party of caring? Isn't BO the candidate of "Hope"?

The fact that George Obama is ashamed of his ties to BO speaks volumems!

john135246, Today (Aug 23, 2008) CNN finally has this story on their web site! Why don't you go check it out if you don't believe it. If Obama cares this little about his younger brother and won't help him out, he's not going to care about you nor about the American people.

[Bricksta88MoB]

tryna keep a brotha down..

[raul1300]

this is the real life of barak obama, his dark side, beware

[cknight63]

You're wrong. Obama's father died in 1982. George Hussein Yonango Obama is 26 years old meaning he was born in the 1981-82 timeframe. Also, Obama wrote about this brother in his autobiography. U.S. news media obviously isn't reporting this. However, many foreign news sources are as is Vanity Fair and Telegraph UK. Wiki mentions it as well.

[cknight63]

If Barack Obama cares that little about his younger brother who lives in poverty, imagine how little he's going to care about the American people.
