BOSTON - President-elect Obama's aunt intends to fight a deportation order and remain in the United States, her immigration lawyer said Friday.
The Associated Press found that Zeituni Onyango, 56, is staying with relatives in Cleveland after fleeing her public housing apartment in Boston. She had been living there five years.
Onyango, who is Obama's father's half-sister, was ordered to leave the country in 2004 by an immigration judge who rejected her request for asylum from her native Kenya.

So, she’s trying to flee authorities?
Oh, just have Bush give her a last minute pardon and lets move on from this one.
Or.....at least launder campaign funds......
Maybe the Prophet can marry his aunt.
Obama will help his aunty as soon as he takes care of his brother - the one living in a mud and cardboard shack on a few dollars a year.
And right after he gets around to the African school still waiting for the help he promised a few years ago.
Obama won’t need to pardon his aunt. No one in government is going to go after her because: she’s black; she’s Obama’s aunt; and too many government people would be shown to have dropped the ball in letting her into public housing in the first place. This woman is in no danger of having to leave the United States.
Rules? There are no rules for liberals.
The whole tribe is coming if she manages this.
Bloodshed perpetrated by her nephew Obama and his cousin Odinga.
I think she should remain here and remain illegal, at least until someone can ask him about her at a White House press conference.
He has already tried twice and I guess counting the incompetent certioff, it is three.
And, he’ll get her vote - whether or not she’s in the country or not; dead or alive; legal or illegal.
“Zeituni Onyango, 56, is staying with relatives in Cleveland”
This is part of the problem with public housing. She actually has a place to stay. The purpose of families is to help each other (especially when they are down and out.)
By providing public housing to her, the government takes over the function of family.
I’m not saying we should eliminate help for the needy, but things like public housing should be the LAST RESORT, not an option (”Should I humble myself and live with my cousins, or move into public housing by myself?”)
Has anyone asked her how she voted in the recent election?
snort - or how many times!?
She can stay after she waits in line with every other immigrant and then pays back with interest the PUBLIC FUNDS SHE HAS STOLEN FOR THE US TO BE PAYING HER RENT.
I’d love it if the Government paid my rent.
How come she gets free or subsidized housing?
