I do not approve of this at all...talk about conserving our cultural tradition. Slap in the face of one of our nation's greatest leaders.

Obama has no respect for this country's history or for its past leaders. He only cares about change. He only cares about moving "forward" to his collectivist dystopia. He wants people to forget what happened before him. He wants people to forget that things can be different, and were different.

Why would Reagan's childhood home be important enough to keep?

"The "childhood home" is an apartment Reagan lived in for less than a year as a young child, and its planned demolition is part of an expansion by the University of Chicago that has nothing to do with President Obama's presidential library. Obama hasn't chosen which state his presidential library will eventually be in, let alone where people will need to park for it." lol

Please. Reagan was born in Tampico and for the most part raised in Dixon. The amount of time he spent in Chicago was trivial.

A Library is more important than an ex-President's childhood house.

There's not even a library going up here. Beside, if people really want to visit Reagan's boyhood home they can do so - in Dixon, IL.

Reagan was a man just like you or I (assumed). Unless God specifically says, "Reagan's childhood home is a holy landmark," it doesn't matter if his home is bulldozed or not.

Lol at calling Reagan a great leader.

Lol at all the misinformation in the OP.

Lol at people acting like this wouldn't be OK if was actually happening.

Reagan sucked as a president and, correct me if I am wrong, but I do believe he was the foundation of everything that is wrong with the Republican party these days.

People need to get off his dick and move on now, really. This necrophillia is disgusting....

I read the title and my jaw dropped. Couldnt honestly believe the balls of that. Then I read the actual article, and now am in favor of a new library.

Another article proving this is bull

http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2013/01/obamas-library-is-not-taking-down-reagans-house/

I'm all for new science research facilities at the University of Chicago. :)

Good job, kk. Foxnation is certainly the place for unbiased, fact-filled articles.

A terrible article full of bad information linking to a poorly written article full of crappy writing. Journalism what happened to you bro? If you legitimately care about a place where a mediocre president spent a couple months of his childhood over educational facilities then please, never talk about politics again as it's clear you don't have the best interests of people in mind.

I dont think you have to immortalize the childhood homes of past presidents.  Besides, destroying homes is symbolic of the president.

He granted amnesty to over 3 million illegal aliens. Under Obama, more than 9 million have been deported. Dude is left of Obama.

Who could possibly care about this? Regardless of what you think about Reagan, why should the place he just happened to live in as a kid be preserved simply because he resided there? Can the house never be replaced just because it used to be his home? Do we have to preserve his favorite restaurant too?
