[QUOTE=Fly Rod;715224]The #1 person to make millions out of the Olympics is no other then Valerie Jarrett President Obama's senior advisor, a long time cronie which started with then corrupt Richard Daley. She had groomed Obama for the Chicago senate. She was also in charge of his campaign to be President.

[QUOTE]

So years b/f Obama was even thinking of running for Pres. she was smart enough to know that he would eventually get elected and decided to buy properties in an area that would eventually get purchased for the Olymipics?

Reading some of these posts is better than watching comedians on tv.

Maybe some Republican senators should start calling for a special prosecuter.

But Paul, might Obama have been pushing a little harder for the Olympics in Chicago knowing full well that many of his friends and donors would benefit?

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

Fishbones,

I doubt it b/c there would be a direct link between Obama and her. If he wanted to help her make some $, I am sure that there are politicians he knows to make it happen.

As an aside, the US tv networks pay by far the highest amount for the tv rights yet the Euro centric international Olympic committee takes the US for granted. I like the Olympics but would wish the US would tell them to go screw.

PaulS:
They did not plan it years back that the Olympics would be in Chicago nor did they plan that the properties may come in to play, back then. But, with the opportunity of having the Olympics in Chicago it would have made the ghetto land worth a lot more.

And Obama would not be President in 2016, also take in concideration the people he hangs with. He didn't go there for the people of Chicago. go back to the early 90's and follow the paper trail, he, Jarrett, Rezko and others took advantage of the poor blacks.

What was it that JFK said? "Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you could do for me."

It didn't go quite that way but it is what he ment.
