Bill Ayers' former college submits three proposals for Obama library, including one site tied to Dem scandal

Bids were due today for anyone interested in hosting the Barack Obama presidential library, and there a seven sites proposed in Chicago alone.

The University of Hawaii in Honolulu and Columbia University in New York also have bids.

The University of Illinois at Chicago, where for years Obama's friend Bill Ayers, the unrepentant Weather Underground terrorist was a tenured education professor, submitted three proposals

It gets better--one of UIC's sites was a focal point of an infamous Chicago Democratic Machine scandal.

From CBS Chicago:

A site that once played a major role in a Chicago scandal has been proposed as a possible home for Obama Presidential Library.

WBBM Newsradio's Regine Schlesinger reports the empty lot at the corner of Roosevelt Road and Kostner Avenue in the North Lawndale neighborhood was once an illegal waste dumping site in the Operation Silver Shovel corruption scandal, which sent six aldermen and 12 other people to prison.

Now, community activists have teamed up with the University of Illinois at Chicago to promote the site as a place to put the Obama Presidential Library.

How ironic...a Chicago Machine dump could be home to the Obama presidential library.
