President Obama recently spoke to the international Olympic committee on Friday urging them to pick his home town of Chicago for the 2016 Olympic games. He said the site would represent America well, because of the American dream and will have great Olympic spirit. While talking to the 106 members of IOC in Copenhagen, Denmark it was the final chance of being chosen for the host city. Obama thinks putting on big events and scores of visitors is just a walk in the park for Chicago. Chicago is 1 of 4 cities put in front of the committee and they're all trying to get in the last word. Experts say all 4 cities have a good chance but Chicago may have a slight edge.
I think this would be a great experience for the visitors and athletes. Anytime the Olympics take place in America that seems to be the center of attention for a couple weeks. Most Americans enjoy sports and that's why Chicago would be a prime spot for the Olympics. Its a big sports city with the bears, white sox, blackhawks, and much much more. Supporting Obama seems the only way to go because someday i hope to go to the olympic games and how convienent it would be if they were as close as Chicago.
