His Aunt is illegal and she is living off of our tax dollars in a project. He mentions her in his book and once again he is not aware of her legal status. So let’s put things in perspective he goes to a church for over 20 years and he is not aware of his pastor’s radical views, he is friends with folks that are radical believers about America and when it comes out he denies his knowledge of their views. How come this man who is running for the highest office of this country gets away without taking any responsibility for any of his past association. What is wrong with average Americans, Seems like they have lost their sense of rational thinking. <br>I am for change but I want a man of integrity that can stand up to his mistakes and accept rather than pulling the “I was not aware card” when exposed. (In that case what is different/Change from the man we have in office today George W. also does not admit to his mistakes) <br>Shame on Americans if we get blindsided in this craziness wave of “Change”. Change is needed but with change comes accountability and I don’t see that coming in Obama’s Change. <br>I hope America thinks objectively rather than emotionally when they Vote for this election because their Vote will impact the next 4 to 8 years of policy making of this Great Nation.
