It's a wonderful tribute to his years serving in Illinois and at the White House. They used great care in choosing the spot in South Chicago, near where he first entered the city as a newly hired community organizer. It's where he met, courted and married Michelle, near where they had their first house and their lovely girls were born. So much of his life is wrapped up in this memorial, and it's all there for the people of Chicago (and all of us) to visit, appreciate, and enjoy for ourselves.
Consider this in contrast with Chump's overnight destruction of the Rose Garden and East Wing, with no plan or forethought. His other insane projects around the White House premises and the National Mall speak for themselves. Chump can't plan ahead for 10 days, and the Obamas planned this Library Center for 10 years!
It is a magnificent achievement.
