Spread The Wealth Around?
Perhaps he should, and start with his own family. I read this in the Globe last night.
But one small part might have remained largely hidden from public view. In a first-floor apartment of a brick public housing complex on a side street in South Boston lives a woman who city officials believe is Obama’s aunt. Her name is Zeituni Onyango, as in the “Auntie Zeituni” in one of his books, a polite and playful resident with an accent that recalls a more exotic place than where she is now.
She has shunned public attention and made little fuss over Obama’s meteoric rise from modest means to the near pinnacle of American politics. But word has been spreading among those in her building.

Obama is the ultimate Democrat expression of "let the government handle it," both in the case of charity (even towards relatives) and in his plans to reorganize government to have a socialist bent.
I wonder how much of the $20K+ that Obama gave to Racist Wright would have been better spent on his aunt?
By the way, Jim: Obama confirmed your assessment last night: $250K has become $200K. People are getting "richer" and Obama isn't even president!!
