I agree with you Sandy, on that point. I see no reason that his aunt's immigration status should be national news. Also, I would definitely think less of him if he knew about it and actually turned her in! It is sad that her privacy has been invaded in this manner.

The thing that I find troubling is that members of his family are living in poverty. If "sharing wealth" is truly Obama's philosophy, why has he not shared some of his millions with his own family? Why does he donate less than 3% to charity? Does he only want us to share ours?

No,No,No, it was Joe himself who decided to "capitalize" on all the faldallrall. He asked a question, a good question, that should have been THE END of it.
