2016 Olympics in Chicago??

Obama plans trip to Denmark to seek Olympics


On CNN this week, President Obama is traveling to Denmark to try to make a push to have the 2016 summer olympics in Chicago Illinois. Obama along with his wife and several other administrators are the first ever to go to a IOC vote. Other sites that Chicago is competing against are Rio De Janeiro, Madrid, and Tokyo. They're expected to to make an appearance at the IOC vote.

I think it would be great to hold the summer olympics in Chicago. We need this event back in the United States. It has been awhile since the U.S. has gotten big taste of the Olympics. If Obama would end up inspring the International Olympic Company to have the games in Chicago, He would go down in history for being the first president ever to actually show up at the IOC meetings, let alone persuade them to have the games here. Obama would quickly become a favorite among the sports fans out there, along with the athletes from the U.S., and their families. But should we really be hosting a game with our econimy or will it be fixed by then, and will we even get it here. These are many great question and we will just have to wait and find out, what happens.
