I moved out of that miserable city 9 years ago and when people ask me what brought me to the Pacific Northwest, I answer "Chicago". With that answer, they seem to understand.
Born and raised on the near North side, aka the inner city, I can tell you from firsthand experience that Chicago is one of the most corrupt city in the universe!!! The Daley Machine, both Version 1 with King Richard J and Version 2 with King Richard M, is legendary!! Talk about cronyism!! Talk about one-way.
Is that the kind of change NObama is talking about??? Taking the BS that is in DC now and exchanging it for the Chicago political machine. We don't need Daley and his minions running the country, people. Vote smart come November 4.
Disgusting. Why won't the people STAND UP AND FIGHT FOR THIS COUNTRY. If Obama get's into office, he can put friends like Ayers in a position to influence the education of our children. You should be afraid. Ayers Obama and Wright worked on a failed radical education project, ANNENBERG, the Woods Project. Fashioned after their friend Hugo Chavez
All our major cities do have poverty..but how many of those in the Senate has campaign supporters who milk thier taxpayers for 100million dollars to renovate the housing for the poor...and took the money and ran...Obama is the only one I know of...Tony Rezco...just convicted...100K...people...
Oprah gave up on the American inner city kids, giving 40 million to African children. When asked why she gave to other children than our own black poor, her comment was:
“I became so frustrated with visiting inner-city schools that I just stopped going. The sense that you need to learn just isn’t there,” she says. “If you ask the kids what they want or need, they will say an iPod or some sneakers. In South Africa, they don’t ask for money or toys. They ask for uniforms so they can go to school.”
Obama will do the same, after all, the S. Africans are counting on him.
It makes you wonder about the elitist rich blacks, who profess to "care" about the poor, turning their backs on their own when they don't feel "appreciated".
He has not done anything for the poor people of the Chicago inner city.
Instead he, his corrupt friends, and Trinity Church have probably grabbed
all the funds for campaigning and personal uses, not to help the people
who really need it and for whom it was intended. This is not our hard
earned taxpayer money at work!
Mrs. Winfrey supports Obama . Obama did not create the Chicago poverty. I Lived inChichago in 1959 and Chicago was a high crime gang laden city then. Ever major city in the united states has the conditiond discribed by your critics. If you are going to be critical of Obama look at all of your political figures in the city over the last 50 years... The answer is in the cities history and Obama did not write it.. but, hopefully, he can re-write it.. not only for Chicago but for the nation as a whole.
