  7. NATO and G-8 summits allow Obama to showcase foreign policy

    WASHINGTON — Whatever else they achieve, back-to-back summits of world leaders this weekend hosted by President Obama will showcase the perks of incumbency.

And the impact? Time will tell, but Chicago has been the home to a number of momentous decisions, movements and gatherings. William Host, associate professor of hospitality and tourism at Roosevelt University, who makes a point of knowing such things, offered up these four influential meetings.

They want a tax on Wall Street, a moratorium on home foreclosures, an end to deportation of undocumented immigrants. Some of them are here to protest the global police oppression they hope to provoke. And then there are the clowns. What are the clowns about?
