An Obama resume — a work in progress

Quick on the heels of Google’s 10th Anniversary release of its 2001 version, one commenter sends along the c.v. for Barack Obama, Senior Lecturer in Law at the University of Chicago Law School.

As with all things Obama, it creates more questions than it provides answers. FYI — This is a work in progress.

First, let’s take Obama at his word. Here’s the contents of that c.v..

• Developing Communities Project
  

  Director, June 1985 – June 1988

  Organized and directed a not-for-profit community development program in low-income areas of Chicago’s Far South Side. With a membership of over twenty churches and civic groups, the organization trained local leaders to formulate and execute a range of community development projects, including job training programs for area unemployed, college prep programs for low-income students, parent initiatives to reform public schools, and campaigns to clean up hazardous waste sites.

  RBO commenter Mel writes: The most important find is Obama’s DCP Director, June 1985 – June 1988 part of his resume where he states: “parent initiatives to reform public schools”.

  This part of his resume places him in complete contact by Obama’s own admissions with Bill Ayers and the ABC Coalition that began in the fall of 1987 and finished its program after railroading every other coalition (likely visa vie ACORN) in the spring of 1988.

  The find solidifies Obama and Ayers timeline to that date and time and is far more important than the CAC because it give greedence to everything that has been theorized about Obama and Ayers and the CAC appointment of Obama by Ayers as chairman of it!
