>>Barack has 9 half brothers and sisters. Nothing is wrong with that, but I agree we have to know about them.<<

Mary -

Are you kidding me? Since when have a candidate's siblings been something to investigate in an election?

I must tell you that I have no idea whether or not Hillary Clinton has siblings. I don't know whether John McCain does, either. Do you? Should we be concerned about that?

What if Hillary has a brother who has said something asinine and offensive at one time? Should we force her to withdraw her candidacy and look for a replacement?

This sudden concern about half-siblings who Obama may have only met once or twice strikes me as xenophobic.

Thanks Mary........I will read it later today.

By the way, I think it's important to find out about all other candidates too. Especially if those relatives are living outside the US in third world nations.

I know that Hillary has a brother who is a US citizen and was once married to Barbara Boxer's daughter..

We need to know if they are a liability to this country or not.
