HOLD A SPECIAL PLACE IN MY HEART

01:39.933 --> 01:46.300 align:start position:10% line:74% size:72.5%

IT'S WHERE I FINALLY PUT MY

IDEAS ABOUT DEMOCRACY AND

02:10.433 --> 02:19.533 align:start position:10% line:74% size:72.5%

02:12.366 --> 02:21.266 align:start position:10% line:74% size:22.5%
THE TEST.

02:15.166 --> 02:23.066 align:start position:10% line:74% size:75%
>> MICHELLE OBAMA WAS LIKEWISE

02:19.533 --> 02:25.233 align:start position:10% line:74% size:55%
SAYING HER SOUTH SHORE

VEINS AND DESPITE HAVING THAT

02:25.233 --> 02:31.000 align:start position:10% line:74% size:70%
ROYALTY AND IS MOST PROUD OF

02:26.933 --> 02:32.566 align:start position:10% line:74% size:72.5%
BEING A DAUGHTER OF THE SOUTH

02:28.100 --> 02:33.500 align:start position:10% line:74% size:65%
SIDE EVEN IF SHE SAYS AS A

02:31.000 --> 02:35.666 align:start position:10% line:74% size:72.5%
YOUTH, THE PARK ITSELF DIDN'T

02:32.566 --> 02:37.266 align:start position:10% line:74% size:30%
CALL TO HER.

02:33.500 --> 02:39.166 align:start position:10% line:74% size:75%
IT WAS MOSTLY A PLACE TO DRIVE

02:35.666 --> 02:41.166 align:start position:10% line:74% size:60%
THROUGH OR DRIVE AROUND.

02:37.266 --> 02:42.633 align:start position:10% line:74% size:72.5%
SHE SAYS THAT WHEN HER FAMILY

02:39.166 --> 02:45.200 align:start position:10% line:74% size:60%
WANTED TO GET CULTURE OR

02:41.166 --> 02:47.133 align:start position:10% line:74% size:72.5%

02:42.633 --> 02:49.400 align:start position:10% line:74% size:80%
PILE INTO HER FATHER'S BUICK AND

02:45.200 --> 02:51.433 align:start position:10% line:74% size:22.5%
GO NORTH.

02:47.133 --> 02:53.266 align:start position:10% line:74% size:60%
>> AN EVEN AS A CHILD, I

02:49.400 --> 02:55.133 align:start position:10% line:74% size:65%
UNDERSTOOD THIS DISPARITY.

02:51.433 --> 02:58.366 align:start position:10% line:74% size:80%
I UNDERSTOOD THAT WHENEVER THERE

02:53.266 --> 02:59.933 align:start position:10% line:74% size:60%
WAS A HUGE INVESTMENT OF

02:55.133 --> 03:03.033 align:start position:10% line:74% size:77.5%
RESOURCES IN THE CITY, NEW PARK

02:58.366 --> 03:05.033 align:start position:10% line:74% size:77.5%

03:05.033 --> 03:14.266 align:start position:10% line:74% size:50%
IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.

03:09.033 --> 03:15.833 align:start position:10% line:74% size:77.5%
>> THE OBAMAS SAY THEIR PLAN IS

03:11.833 --> 03:18.433 align:start position:10% line:74% size:75%
TO QUOTE RESTORE JACKSON PARK.

03:14.266 --> 03:21.333 align:start position:10% line:74% size:72.5%
THEY WILL PLANT NEW TREES AND

03:15.833 --> 03:24.833 align:start position:10% line:74% size:65%
MAKE THIS A PEOPLE'S PARK.

03:18.433 --> 03:26.133 align:start position:10% line:74% size:70%
NOW, THE WORD RESTORE IS ONE

03:21.333 --> 03:28.133 align:start position:10% line:74% size:67.5%
THAT MAY CAUSE UMBRAGE FROM

03:24.833 --> 03:30.366 align:start position:10% line:74% size:65%
CRITICS, THERE IS STILL AN

03:26.133 --> 03:32.866 align:start position:10% line:74% size:77.5%
ONGOING LAWSUIT THAT IS SEEKING

03:28.133 --> 03:35.166 align:start position:10% line:74% size:80%
TO PREVENT THE CENTER FROM BEING

03:30.366 --> 03:38.866 align:start position:10% line:74% size:72.5%
BUILT HERE ON AT JACKSON PARK

03:32.866 --> 03:40.300 align:start position:10% line:74% size:70%

SAYS SHOULD REMAIN THAT WAY AND

03:41.666 --> 03:48.566 align:start position:10% line:74% size:80%
THAT WAS A POINT MADE BY A PLANE

03:44.033 --> 03:51.566 align:start position:10% line:74% size:65%

ON THIS THIS VISIT WE HOPE THEY

04:05.900 --> 04:10.366 align:start position:10% line:74% size:72.5%
WILL MOURN THE DEVASTATION OF

04:07.200 --> 04:12.766 align:start position:10% line:74% size:75%
THE CLEAR-CUTTING OF THE TREES

04:08.533 --> 04:14.933 align:start position:10% line:74% size:65%

04:31.533 --> 04:37.466 align:start position:10% line:74% size:70%
FOR THAT TO HAPPEN, THE CITY

04:33.533 --> 04:39.500 align:start position:10% line:74% size:72.5%

BOTHERED THAT THE OBAMAS KEPT

06:08.133 --> 06:13.900 align:start position:10% line:74% size:80%

06:43.133 --> 06:47.500 align:start position:10% line:74% size:22.5%
IS UPSET.

06:43.866 --> 06:49.233 align:start position:10% line:74% size:70%
I SPOKE WITH A MAN WHO LIVES

06:45.666 --> 06:51.000 align:start position:10% line:74% size:65%
ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE

06:47.500 --> 06:53.800 align:start position:10% line:74% size:75%
FORMER PRESIDENTIAL CENTER AND

06:49.233 --> 06:56.933 align:start position:10% line:74% size:75%

WILL BE ACROSS FROM HIS HOME.

06:59.066 --> 07:05.933 align:start position:10% line:74% size:60%
NOW THE OBAMAS HAVE HIGH

07:01.700 --> 07:08.066 align:start position:10% line:74% size:67.5%
ASPIRATIONS FOR THE CENTER.

07:03.333 --> 07:09.933 align:start position:10% line:74% size:70%
IT MAY BE JUST DIRT NOW, AND

07:05.933 --> 07:11.666 align:start position:10% line:74% size:70%
NICE DIRT AS PRESIDENT OBAMA

07:08.066 --> 07:14.100 align:start position:10% line:74% size:75%
CALLED IT, BUT THEY WANT IT TO

07:09.933 --> 07:15.333 align:start position:10% line:74% size:75%
