Obama Half Brother, George Obama, working on book
AP / Brietbart ^ | 14 Jun 09 | Hillel Itale

A memoir by George Obama, the president's half brother and a resident of Huruma, Kenya, will be published by Simon & Schuster in January 2010. George Obama, 27, shares the same father with his famous, older half sibling, although George and Barack Obama—20 years apart in age—did not grow up together and did not meet as children.

George is the youngest of the senior Obama's seven children and was born six months before his father died.

Little is known about George Obama. The book, tentatively titled "Homeland" and to be written with author-journalist Damien Lewis, will tell of George Obama's fall into crime and poverty as a teenager and his eventual embrace of community organizing—a passion shared by the president—and of advocacy for the poor, an identification so strong that he chooses to live among them.

Insert your own working title. My guess is it will be called either.

"Africa on Twenty Dollars a Year" or

"He Ain't a Hypocrite, He's my brother."

I hope he does well.
Then, he might be able to afford a 10’ by 20’ foot shack.

If this guy is just another community organizer like his older brother, watch out. Who is this guy, Lewis helping him with the book?

Why would I want to read abook by Obama’s half brother, unless it contains some facts on his brother’s birth certificate.

******will tell of George Obama’s fall into crime and poverty as a teenager and his eventual embrace of community organizing—a passion shared by the president—and of advocacy for the poor, an identification so strong that he chooses to live among them.********

If that paragraph isnt a load of horsedung I never read any.
If George makes a couple of bucks off this book we will see soon enough how long he continuesto live among the impoverished. George would more likely dream of living like his Daddy. Roaming the world drunk as a skunk ,impregnating any woman stupid enough to spread her legs for him , women such as Ann Dunham.
