In a federal lawsuit filed Monday against the city of Chicago, Protect Our Parks Inc. accuses organizers of the planned library at Jackson Park on the city’s South Side of pulling an “institutional bait and switch” by changing the true nature of the center from a presidential library to a center that doesn’t house historic papers.
The Obama Foundation has said it will host a digital archive of President Barack Obama’s records, but that paper documents will be stored elsewhere.
Chicago hasn’t specifically addressed the group’s argument, but in a statement it characterizes the lawsuit as a threat to a major economic boost for the South Side.
PU, hope he puts its in the center of the black ghetto in Chicago.
The real library will which will house the original papers will be built in his hometown – Kenya!
This sounds like the museum in Gaza that cost 11million dollars and they are still looking for something to put in it, for you know they have so much history it gets confusing. Same the Obama he has so much it is hard to decide with book he didn’t write, papers he didn’t write, speeches he didn’t write in this new Obama library.
Typical Obama, bait and switch.
