Former President Barack Obama, Michelle in Chicago on Thursday, Friday – Chicago Sun-Times*

The Obama Presidential Foundation released few details on the visit, saying in a release that there will be meetings with “groups of community leaders” — none named — “whose work embodies the Obama Foundation’s approach to civic leadership and who are working in their communities to build effective solutions to a range of challenges ranging from mental health, LGBTQ advocacy, violence, food insecurity, economic opportunities and more.”

Imagine how much good could be accomplished if the money raised for the Obama edifice was used to help the residents in the area. Instead they are building a monument that will displace area residents as the neighborhoods gentrify.
As kids we were taught ‘self-praise stinks.’ It was true then; is true now.

Oh Boy! A blowhard opportunity! Community leaders like Joe Camel and Kim. Will Lori return from her hideaway in DC having completed her very important on behalf of the citizens of Chicago? Will she stand off to the side isolated by her greatness?
