Obama's Presidential Library Won't Actually Have Library Materials
Townhall ^ | Oct 9, 2017 | Leah Barkoukis

Unlike traditional presidential libraries, the Obama Presidential Center will not actually have library materials. That is—it will not house former President Obama’s manuscripts, documents, letters, and gifts from his tenure in office—items presidential centers around the country all have.

Instead, it will include space for outdoor functions and picnics, a basketball court, recording studio, sledding hill, children’s play garden, and more.

As for the actual library documents, the center will rely online archives for Obama’s presidential materials as a way to avoid meeting federal standards in construction, raising money for an endowment, and paying the National Archives and Records Administration to run the facility.

...

“Here’s how it will be attractive: through the forums, workshops and programs they conduct,” James Rutherford, the dean of the William J. Clinton School of Public Service, told the Chicago Tribune. “They can host conferences with administration officials, discussions on how Obama approached health care, how he developed the DACA executive order. That’s how the center will become a research institution.”

Michael Walsh at PJ Media observes:

The sheer arrant phoniness of this man and his media enablers was, for eight long years, simply stunning -- and, of course, That's How You Got Trump. But to build a "presidential library" and then leave the library part out... is somehow exactly what we would expect of a man who probably never darkened a library door in his life.

How about the documents where the First Moslem impostor
gave up his US citizenship, or where the Saudis paid
his way into Harvard Law as a foreigner.

Obama, the poster child for the Lying left. Call it one thing but it really isn’t. Now you see it now you don’t. Smoke and mirrors.

“As for the actual library documents,”

Don’t bother. He is a manufactured puppet of the NWO. His ACTUAL DOCS are sealed in a Washington DC vault, inside a law firm as per executive order he signed a day after election.

No one has seen his high school transcripts, diplomas and especially his birth certificate except maybe Soros.

“The Koran”, “The Communist Manifesto”, “Rules for Radicals” and a few more would be all the filthy place would need.

They don’t want it known what really went on.

It will have a teleprompter you can program and then stand there and read.

The rest is just kid’s toys.

The U.S. Treasury should coin Obama's image.
 
It would be a stimulus coin and quite possibly the best investment anyone could make becuase as every collector knows coins with a mistake on them are more valuable.

The Queen of England would be glad to donate an iPod full of 0stutter's speeches.
Thrilled even.

The only people who’ll visit will be Democrats. Most of them can’t read. Why spend money on BOOKS, when basketballs would actually be used?

The big government Prez hides his records and avoids government regulations all in the same story. Figures.
