Barack and Michelle Obama's gift to Chicago and America





Here's the most important thing: Michelle and I want this Center to be more than a building or a museum.
We want to create an economic engine for Chicago and the South Side, and a cultural destination that
showcases the South Side to the rest of the world. We want it to be a gathering place -- somewhere for all
kinds of people to come together and learn, not just from history or current events, but from each other.
More than a museum with stories from the past, we want this to be a place that helps and inspires all of us
to build our collective future. This Center is for young people on the South Side and for young people all
around the world -- the leaders of tomorrow who are ready to step up and build the world as it should be.
And Michelle and I are grateful to all of you for being a part of it.

Can you imagine Trump and Mellie working together on a project like this?
Heck, they don't even eat dinner together!!!
