the finalists for the Olympics are
Chicago,Madrid,Rio and Tokyo
I think tyoceyo should hould the olypics, because the populashin is high that mens more money and a lot more vuers
Chicago should win because the first lady was born in Chicago and also obama went to Chicago after law school.
I think that Chicago should host the 1016 Olympic games. I think this because, it has never hosted the Olympics before and it has been a while since a U.S state has hosted the Olympics.
I think That Chicago should host the 2016 Olympics because 1. they have never hosted the Olympics.2. i could then maybe go to Olympics.3. the us hasn't hosted the Olympics sense 1996, in Atlanta, Georgia.
4. it would just be awesome!!!!!!!!!!
I think the olympics should be in
Rio because it's never held the olympics before and it looks like a welcoming area and I believe it has some arenas.
