Obama's aunt, the one he mentions in his memoirs, is living illegally in the United States in PUBLIC HOUSING!

Wait a minute. Do we know for a fact that Obama knew that she was here illegally?

Buy it or get it from the library and find out.

The Bush girls and Amy Carter were relatives of politicians, and because some people hated the politicians they were related too, they were dragged through the mud.

The only reason that Obamas's half aunt through his now deceased father, who abandoned him at early age, is even in the news, is because the Obama haters have been picking over his family with a fine tooth comb, looking for ANY CRAP they can to smear him. And they are willing to drag any family member through the mud in order to do this.

The same reason why this non-story about Obama's half aunt is in the news, is the same reason why petty nonsense about the Bush girls is in the news.

You aren't too good at connecting the dots, are you ?

The relevance is that a candidates family often gets raked over the coals just for being in the family. The flip side is that the candidate is often raked over the coals for actions for actions of distant family members as well. It shouldn't happen but it does. Neither have anything to do with the real issues of the campaigns.

"No, but what do I or my family have to do with this?"

Then why did you bring your family into the discussion ?

The half-sister of the father he barely met?

And yet they do. That is the way of elections. Opposing sides often use whatever they have regardless of how tenuous the connection.
