Michelle Obama to pick Obama library location: report
WGN-TV ^ | February 5, 2015 | Staff

CHICAGO — The site of the Obama presidential library and museum will be announced next month, and apparently the First Lady is going to pick it.

The Chicago Sun-Times reports Michelle Obama will make the final decision, and she is said to be favoring Columbia University in New York. The school wants to build the library on its new campus in Harlem.

Chicago has two bids being considered … the University of Chicago on the south side, and UIC on the west side.

The University of Hawaii is also in the running.

All I hope,for personal reasons,that it is NOT the U. of Hawaii.

Chicago seems like the logical place.

Too bad Columbia has nothing to contribute to the library.

What will be the point, if every piece of documentation of his is sealed, buried, shredded, photoshopped, forged, or printed with disappearing ink?

Seriously, his legacy is a mound of Christian and Yazidi skulls.
