quote:

The planned Obama presidential library in Chicago, dubbed “Obamaland,” is an extravagant waste of taxpayer dollars, in a city that is already at the financial breaking point.


quote:

Obama Presidential Center outdoes them all. It does not even call itself a library, as it will contain no books or documents to enable researchers to study what happened and why in the White House between 2004 and 2012.


quote:

All the carefully selected and screened material in the center will be digitized and on computer while the original source material will be retained by the National Archives in Washington. At best, the center will be a curiosity, dear to fans of the former president but attracting few others.


quote:

Robert Zimmer is already promoting the center as a major international attraction for scholars and the general public alike, adding that it will serve as a “catalyst for economic and cultural opportunities as well as community programming,” whatever that is supposed to mean.

What do you expect from a guy that never truly ran and managed anything that required basic knowledge of a budget and a spread sheet before he became President?

No use in calling it a library since not too many of the visiting constituency is able or cares to read.

So this thing is going to be a tremendous waste of money.

I can’t think of a more perfect nor fitting tribute to Obama’s legacy.

It’s cheaper and easier than going to Mombasa (and nearly as safe)
