Obama Won't Help Half-Brother George Who Lives In Poverty - Redistribution Of The Wealth? / Video

Courtesy of CNN. Obama half-brother George. Barack Obama's half-brother, George Obama, lives in Kenya. Barack Obama does not have a relationship with or speak to his half-brother. Neighbors feel Barack Obama should visit brother and see how he lives. They feel he should help him improve his way of life. Obama has known about his brother for a long time. Obama promises to take care of those who are less fortunate with big government but the hypocrisy is clear. If this is how he takes care of his family, what will it be like when we are forced into his big government "family" or McCain's big government "family"? Barack Obama says he wants to take more money from the "rich" to make the tax code "fair," but he won't give one dime to his own half-brother who lives in abject poverty. Barack Obama claims he wants to help all Americans, but he will not even help his half-brother.

George Obama, whose birth certificate shows that he is Barack Obama's half-brother, lives in a small house in Huruma that he shares with his mother's extended family, far away from the presidential campaign circus. In his memoir, "Dreams for my Father," the Democratic presidential candidate describes meeting George as a "painful affair." Barack Obama's trip to Kenya meant meeting family he had never known. In the book, which is popular in Nairobi and can be found in almost any supermarket, Obama looks back at his personal story and his struggles to reconcile with a Kenyan father who left him and his mother when he was just a child. Barack Obama Sr. died in a car accident when George was just 6 months old. And like his half-brother, George hardly knew his father. George was his father's last child and had not been aware of his famous half-brother. "I think I wanted to learn about my father the same way he did," George Obama told me about why he read the book. "He came here searching for his roots, and I was also trying to find my roots." Watch George Obama talk about meeting his half-brother for the first time. Unlike his grandmother in Kogela, in Western Kenya, George Obama had received little attention from the media. But reports surfaced in the past few days, springing from an Italian Vanity Fair article saying George Obama is living in a shack and "earning less than a dollar a day." The reports left him angry. "I was brought up well. I live well even now," he said. "The magazines, they have exaggerated everything. "I think I kind of like it here. There are some challenges, but maybe it is just like where you come from, there are the same challenges," Obama said. Obama, who is in his mid-20s, is learning to become a mechanic and is active in youth groups in Huruma. He said he tries to help the community as much as he can. At least one of his neighbors feels that perhaps the candidate should help the brother. "I would like Obama to visit his brother to see how he is living, to improve his way of life," said Emelda Negei, who runs a small dispensary near Obama's house.

Damn..he looks just like President Obama..

[shifty123able]

Like if you agree Barrak should be ONLY a one-term President, and NO MORE

[MegaChavo19]

Danm thats fuck up cant help a brotha out

[TheLovelylips8098]

there is no way he can help everyone especially since, it seems his father practically blew his seeds to the wind to land where they may. The only thing they seem to share is a genetic pool. Wow. I don't know.... would you help a half brother that you didn't know until you landed a lottery ticket? Just asking.

Supremekaid5: I never said Obama is using my tax money to party and live it up in Hawaii. But if you want to make it personal , he is also using your tax money to screw around with.I never heard of Obama's brother drinking heavily. But I heard our President has been on constant drinking binges in the White House. But everyone is flawed. . It's just when a person don't give a shit about family and he becomes our President, it sends a chill down my spine. I think he cares only for himself.

@tonyfressola well fyi he rarely knows his brother now learn something yea let obama help his brother out then whinners like you would complain claiming that he's using your supposed tax payer money.FYI I leanred about obamas brother he once had a good life then he ended up drinking it away.

[XDSlashMinecraft]

Obama needs to be impeached or something, I mean seriously he isn't from hawaii! He is not from America. Jeez.. Why can't people get this!?!

[surreal15m]

This is a complete Catch-22 situation.

If these reports hadn't shown up and Obama had in fact visited his half-brother, Americans will rise up to speak against of it arguing that he's putting his personal issues in front of his duty as President.

But because he IS putting his duties as President ahead of family, people are arguing that he is being unfair to his family.

Everyone will always find a reason to argue.

[chillydogification]

Barack obamas father gets around lol

[NYAKO123]

obama help ur bro!!#

[Noumenon4Idolatry]

George doesn't appear the least bit envious.

Sinoples: If u had a half brother in a jam, and you had Obama's money. You wouldn't help him out?? Obama's basic message as President is that he is trying to give the American people a better way of life. But he doesn't give a dam about his 1/2 brother. Obama just took a vacation to Hawaii, costing several million dollars, Pelosi just took a vacation to Hawaii, spending time in a hotel , costing $10,000/night. If I were them I would have given the money to those people in poverty instead
