Why won't Obama help his poor half-brother?
His half-brother is very poor, and only makes 1 dollar per month.
If Obama is so eager to lift up the poor and broken, why hasn't he helped this relative of his?

Hypocrites.. Okay, so why does Palin have a 17 year old daughter who is pregnant? Questions that cannot SIMPLY be answered.

This is old news.
Obama's brother doesn't want help. He likes his life. Making $1/month (if that's even accurate) in Kenya is much different than making that wage here.
Obama barely knows his brother, and has only met him once or twice briefly.
In fact, his brother was very angry to learn that the interview he gave has been twisted around to make him sound like a poor man who Obama won't help. It hurt his pride - he is proud of the living he makes in Kenya.
So stop exploiting people when you don't even know the story, please.

The Democrats NEED poor people to stay in power.
That is why they have always kept the poor poor and want to make the middle class poor. The more people that are poor the more chances they have of getting relected by "working for the poor", even if it is a LIE.
That way they become the ruling elitist Socialist on top and everyone else is hoping the elistist don't blow our brains out in front of our families.

I don't know why.
Can you tell me why Cindy McCain does not acknowledge or help her much poorer half-sister?
Don't bother answering because I don't care.... I care about issues facing America. Not family relations of people I don't know personally.
