The Obama brothers

Barack Obama's half-brother George lives in a notorious African slum. George Obama has battled addictions to drink and drugs - such as cocaine, heroin and marijuana - for most of his life. The two men may share the same father, but while Barack Obama was born to his father’s American second wife, George — born in Kenya — was the product of Obama Senior’s fourth marriage. Barack Obama would probably be living a similar life to that of his brother if it wasn't for the fact that he was raised by his white grandparents.
