Was Obama’s interest in taking a job at U Chicago Law schools partly motivated by an urge to be at the shrine where Bernadine Dohrn was a student and the Weather Underground started? There is something very creepy and obsessive about him making contact with movement radicals and then moving himself to the ground zero of the great rebellion of 1968.

That may not be his only connection to part of the University’s less positive history. Chicago is always sensitive to people who get to tightly wrapped up in messianic superiority fantasies. This was the home of Leopold and Loeb and for years afterwards students believed the University Library hid the Nietzche volumes. Note that everyone involved in that crime lived in the same small neighborhood of Kenwood where Obama now lives. Look at the map of where that happened and remember where Obama’s house is at 50th and Greenwood.
