- Abstract:
The article focuses on the unsuccessful visit of U.S. President Barack Obama to Copenhagen, Denmark to advocate for holding the Olympic Games in Chicago, Illinois. It notes that Chicago Mayor Richard Daley was counting on the Olympics to justify spending and building in part of the city. It also notes Daley is vulnerable to charges of waste and corruption without the Olympics as a distraction. It points out what looks like influence of Daley on the Obama White House as the reason for the trip.
