hmm.   Chicago seems like the likely choice.

I don't see ChiTown as a logical choice for any reason.

You might want to go to see what prisonplanet has on tourism numbers (by visitors and by money) and see who dreams of the city of big shoulders, the windy city, or the lush warm climate of our 50th state in the december-april timeframe.

People go to ChiTown to drink beer, and watch Da Bears.

2006 and 2007 saw a big increase in tourism, with over 7.6 million visitors.

But, no one visits Hawaii.

How often do you drop in to the big Island?

Carter's is in Atlanta. Been there once.

Lincoln's Library... never been to Springfield Ill.

Never been to Simi Valley, Cal,. the home of Reagan's Library.

Last time I checked, Hawaii is a state.

Is it your contention Obama's Library shouldnt be housed there because you dont want to visit Hawaii?

The users in Hawaii can. The last I checked, Troll was living there and had offered to let me come visit him.

So there are two folks on CM off the bat.

I will never have a reason to go to HI.   I will however be in Chicago as family is there.   They could build it INTO Ohare, and that way delayed plane people could pop in.

I'm sure they'll be all broken up over that.  They won't have a Alex Jones section so there wouldn't be a reason for you to go anyway.

But who'd want to?
It'd be pretty boring; "Number of articles published in the Harvard law review before becomming *editor*, "one."
"How children can sue their dead parents estates", or some such foolishness.
"And this is the biggest part of the library, The Affirmative Action Wing."
"All 57 states made donations to the library to ah,.....fill in the gaps."
"Grade transcripts from Columbia U; .....unavailable."
(Evidently "The Brilliant Legal Scholor" didn't do too well at Columbia.)
"*Birth certificate* for Mr Obama, out being reframed, expected delivery date, ...unknown."
"Pair of Michelle Obama's *size 15* shoes that she wore on the India trip."
"Framed copy of Aunt Zetuni's origional first welfare check!"
"Framed copies of Aunt Zetuni's two orders of deportation."
I wonder if Obama's library will look like a "double-wide" like Clinton's?

They "had" or they "hid?"
If you're a history buff go to England. Much more interesting! I went to a pub there that was said to be 1,000 years old!
