He never wasted a moment of his time trying to help the lower class African-Americans, of course he wouldn’t put his temple of the messiah anywhere near them.
MLK on the other hand would have spent his entire presidency among the poor and oppressed.
Agreed.
Also, Obama still has a lot of delusional influence among blacks and hasn’t spent a single second helping us. No social activism, speeches, food drives, donations, volunteerism, calls to stop black on black violence.
The guy just sits on his ass in his mansion while hosting parties for the liberal elites and plays golf with taxpayer money. He can at least pretend to give a damn about the people who elected him for 8 years.
You don’t. Why can’t Obama build it in Martha’s Vineyard where he lives? Seems like that would be the logical thing to do. He could walk over there and read all his books and hold crafting classes for the kids or something.
No, I don’t so I don’t care. Neither do you so it’s nonya for you.
You just want to complain for the sake of complaining. It doesn’t matter where they put that building you’ll just whine.

OK.
What have you done?
All the “calls to stop black on black violence” aren’t going to do any good until the addiction problem is addressed.
Obama tried to give people health care but the GOPers turned it into a joke. Healthcare would have allowed people to get effective treatment for addiction. But no. Nope. That’s “socialism”. Guess it’s better to die. For those who cannot afford treatment there’s always the Christian church around the corner. Some treatment.
As for golf, Trump played plenty of golf on the taxpayers’ dime.
Food drives, donations…? Government handouts not enough?
Does anyone on this thread live at the proposed location?
Briefly, 5 years ago. When I was there, Hyde Park was a little strip of college neighborhood around the University of Chicago, between very poor and dangerous neighborhoods with frequent shootings. But UC is dying. Without it, Hyde Park could have some rough years of being another violent south side hood until suburban sprawl reverses.
Obama's absurd skyscraper plan may be obsolete before construction is completed. Skyscrapers use more energy, which is becoming more expensive.
$700 million according to the article - but is it paid for with tax money or 0bama foundation money?
Oh yeah, $500 is just what the land is worth and then we have the construction costs, and the costs the city will pay to reroute current roads and built new roads. This does not take into account the cost to the people in the area for the loss of revenue from the blocked roads and detours during all of this construction.
In the end I'll bet his ego stroking, giant carbon footprint, Obama center costs one billion dollars, but he's worth it, just ask him.

Nope. If they put it in the town he chose to live in no one would complain. That’s the way it should be. If it’s so important to him he should want it close so he can visit daily. Maybe put in a throne room so he’d have a place to receive the pilgrims and disperse dispensations. And then a coke room for him and his sophisticated cronies where they can gather separately from the unwashed.
