Sutton and al-Mansour also have Chicago connections.  And, since they both 
also have NY connections and both were very active in NY when Teflon was 
there and his original trec to Chicago came via NY, there's those 6 degrees 
again.

And one other thing..
I had always wondered, Why Chicago?  How does a kid raised in HI and
elsewhere, goes to college in LA and NY and Boston, end up in Chicago?
What made him go there for internship?

I think Frank Marshall Davis is the connection.  He had lived there much
of his life and probably told young Obama stories about it.  Also,
Davis' ex-wife had been a Chicago socialite (white), so Davis would have
known who's who in the Chicago socialist world.
That may not be factual, but in my mind, I think that is why Obama chose
Chicago...he knew that he might find a receptive hear to his own
ideologies, and he did with Palmer, Ayers, and others.
