Andy Martin says the National
Archives are failing American taxpayers by failing to explain how Obama
presidential archives will be displayed and made available
Andy says that Chicago,
Illinois and American taxpayers have been bamboozled by yet another scam
designed to conceal the inner workings of the Obama administration
Andy calls for Chicago to
reopen the grant of precious parkland for what amounts to nothing more than an
“Obama theme park” of no historical or presidential value; the parkland was
obtained through trickery and artifice, Andy says
(Manchester, NH) (October 23, 2017) New
Hampshire congressional candidate and corruption fighter Andy Martin, who is in
Chicago to celebrate fifty years of working on behalf of public integrity, will
hold a Chicago news conference today to charge that the “Obama Presidential Center”
in Chicago is a scam designed to delay access to the original records of the Barack
Obama administration.
“Chicago’s taxpayers have been fooled,”
Andy charges. “Friends of the Parks have been fooled, and the National Archives
and Records Administration (“NARA”) is being bamboozled and manipulated to
continue the secrecy which characterized Obama’s eight years of opaque
leadership in the White House. (please see links #1 and #2 below)
“I am launching today am effort to force
the City of Chicago and State of Illinois to reconsider granting park land for
what is essentially a tax-exempt ‘Obama theme park’ having virtually no historical
or scholarly value.
“I will be asking NARA: when did you know
that Obama’s ‘Presidential Center’ was not going to be a ‘library?’ Why did you
waste millions of dollars shipping and storing documents in a location where
they would not be used as intended? Given that you now know that there is no
‘there’ there, how are you preparing to make the actual hard documents and
records available for scholarly and media research?
“I see no evidence NARA has announced the time
and plans when Obama’s actual records are being curated for display. No evidence
of a time and place where scholars can show up to see the original hard copies.
“Bottom line: precious parkland was turned over
to Obama for what amounts to a personal, tax-exempt ‘Obama Theme Park.’ The public
will have no control and very little input. But, in return for a great big, but
typical, Obama nothing, roads will be closed, causing traffic chaos, all to
glorify the narcissistic ‘emperor’ of Hyde Park.
“If the City and Park District had known
there would be no actual library there (please see link #5 below), the balance
might have tipped against destroying a lovely park area, (please see link # 4
below) merely to allow Obama to obstruct a monument to himself and not a genuine
repository of American history. The fact that Obama is already promoting his
typical type of small bore activity (please see link #3 below), ‘community
organizing,’ shows what he has in mind for the facility.
“NARA is letting American taxpayers down. They
are misusing the tax dollars of every state from New Hampshire as well as the other
49 states. There are no publicly announced plans for the actual ‘library’ where
the actual documents will be displayed. Why? Why is NARA stalling? Taxpayers
deserve answers. What did NARA know and when did NARA know that NARA would have
to create and construct an actual Obama library 700 miles away, and that
shipping records to Chicago was just another Obama boondoggle?
“Let me be clear that I am not against
online access as an additional option. But every museum in the world considers
online access a supplement for and not a substitute for availability of the
original, archival material.
“This is just another Obama scam, a typical
Chicago scam and a worthless misuse of taxpayer dollars and precious parkland
that explains why the city and state are bankrupt. They allow themselves to be
fooled, they willingly abuse the public trust and play games with valuable
public property. Finding out where the original documents will be available at
a presidential library should not be a game of three-card monte. All we know
now is that they rubberized the actual role of the OBC and schemed to create an
actual library 700 miles from Chicago.
“Obama wants to delay the release of his actual
records and erect a ‘pyramid’ exalting himself on the south side. But, with the
library gone, traffic is going to fall precipitously. When you factor in the
reduced traffic because the library is 700 miles away, the balance tips
decidedly against misappropriating park land for Obama’s glorification. Friends
of the Parks please take notice. We deserve answers. I am going to start
demanding them.”
Andy will resume his Obama investigation
and ‘excavations” in Hawai’i in November.
