~~Ding!!

In 1988, in response to a Chicago summit that documented the poor quality of education in the city, Chicago United, a group founded by Ayers’ father, the late Thomas Ayers, formed a community advocacy coalition called the Alliance for Better Chicago Schools, or ABC. Thomas Ayers was the chairman and CEO of Commonwealth Edison.

When he created his ABCs Coalition in June 1988, Thomas Ayers included Obama in the coalition, Klein and Elliott found. Obama at the time was director and lead organizer of the Developing Communities Project, or DCP, an institutionally based community organization on Chicago’s Far South Side. Obama’s first job in Chicago was his DCP position.

The contact for the ABCs Coalition, on which Obama served, was none other than William Ayers himself, who at the time was at the University of Illinois at Chicago

The best part—after BHO & Ayers threw tons of money away on their asinine social justice crap, even their own internal testing showed no beneift to the students on any level.

Maybe even earlier than NY.

I wonder about his “mentor” Frank Marshall Davis’ ties to Chicago and the communist party there. Who all did Davis know? Valerie Jarrett’s father-in-law? Ayers senior? How far back and how wide are the connections that may have produced Team O?
