The dream team.


The City of Chicago is well represented in Copenhagen Danemark for the presentations by the cities hoping to obtain the 2016 summer Olympic Games. Nothing was left to chance it seems. The Obama family accompanied by Oprah herself are now in Copenhagen, surely confident to comeback in Chicago with the 2016 games in their pockets. I wish that they realize their objective and bring back the game in the windy city but i doubt they can realize that.


First of all, i think the United States had the Olympic games rather often in the last years. There is a strong movement in the Olympic Commitee wanting to see the games move to South America. They went to America and Asia a lot in the recent years and South America is like a normal target now. I also think that the members of the Olympic Commitee are probably a bit disturbed by the "too strong" delegation sent by Chicago. Seeing big stars like the Obamas with Oprah arrive in Danemark is like seeing the invincible team coming only to win. No defeat possible for such a cast. The effect caused by the dream team of Chicago could be reverse.


I also think that Tokyo could be the surprise winner tomorrow. This city is absolutly incredible, ultra modern and after Beijing, why not go a last time in Asia in the most spectacular city of that continent. Personnaly i fear that the people of Rio De Janeiro and those of Chicago will go back home sad tomorrow. I would like to see the Olympic games held in beautiful Chicago in 2016 but it won't happen.


One factor to consider too is the fact that President Obama is popular but less than let's say four months ago. I can even say that i'm sure that many people are tired to see him talk on television almost each day since the first day of his electoral campaign last year. And i think he must had left his wife do the job alone in Danemark. Chicago's chances would have been better to obtain the 2016 games. But that's only my opinion. We will see tomorrow if i was wrong. If i was don't hesitate to write me to brag me.
