Lots of potholes and it uses its off ramps as on ramps IF you know what I mean

Probably asphalt and not concrete!

Personally, I’d name a section of 53 or 171 through Joilet after him....

... if only as a form of wishful thinking.

“Hershey highway”

It’ll have lots of skid marks...

The crookedest and weakest section, I assume.

“Worst President In History” highway.

>> They should put it through the Killing Section of Chicago/ make him proud. <<

Excellent idea. Now that Cabrini Green is no longer the "worst neighborhood in Chicago", it looks like Fuller Park has taken that current "honor". Fuller Park is named after Melville Fuller, an excellent conservative Chief Justice during the Gilded Age who had been appointed by President Grover Cleveland.

I would suggest swapping the names so I-55 can be "Melville Fuller Highway" and Fuller Park will henceforth be known as "Obama Park".

I'd name the section of 53 that goes right by Statesville after him ...... Just that mile or so stretch after you turn south on 53 from Route 7 down to Broadway.

Can you tell I'm familiar with that stretch of road?

“Taking Obama’s Road” as slang for going to jail would be a legacy worthy of that POTUS.

I am glad Reagan has a ton of stuff named after him. I hope obama doesn’t get an airport or ship. The rest I don’t care.

With Illinois’ money problems, it will be full of potholes, have weeds and trash along it’s length and be a reminder about what a trailer park family the Obamas really are.
