Ben Calhoun on Obama and Hyde Park
My buddy Ben Calhoun put together a great story for WBEZ on why Obama’s political success has had everything to do with choosing Hyde Park as his Chicago home. It does a nice job of answering one of the key questions left open by James Merriner’s “Friends of O,” (Chicago Magazine) and Andrew Ferguson’s “Mr. Obama’s Neighborhood” (The Weekly Standard).
