I think that game is a bit unfair, even if arranging one-sided games is part of the Chicago tradition.

That said,  "The North Side is the area north of the Loop--Chicago's midtown central business district--where rich white people live; they root for the Cubs. They're neighborhood is called the Gold Coast."

that much even I know.(these crime novels) So I am aware of the situation too, just like Obama! Does that makes me responsible? I don't think so.

And that truism:

"For almost a hundred years in Chicago blacks have lived on the South Side close to Chicago's factories and slaughter houses. And Cellular Field, home of the White Sox. The area where they lived was called the Black Belt or Bronzeville--and it's the largest concentration of African American people in the U.S.--nearly 600,000 people--about twice the size of Harlem."

is a bit misleading. He makes it seem like the South Side isn't black today, thanks to Obama. But that is nonsense. Even the middle-class Hyde park is 35% or so black. And the rest of the South side, including parts of Obama's old senate district, are full of 97% black community areas.

So that is Fitch doing here? First he claims that Chicago is just like Manhattan, fitting Chicago, its history and its politics into his area of expertise. Then he makes very broad claims about the development plan in Chicago: turning the (entire?) South Side into Manhattan or the North Side. And then he blames State Senator Obama, because he did represent a part of the South Side.

But Obama wasn't the major or even an alderman. And a lot of the development was happening then Obama didn't have any office and was organizing tenants.

The actual state senator Obama was occupied with:

 "In January 2003, Obama became chairman of the Health and Human Services Committee, after six years on the committee and four years as its minority spokesman. The new Democratic majority allowed Obama to write and help pass more legislation than in previous years. He sponsored successful efforts to expand children's health care, create a plan to provide equal health care access for all Illinois residents, and create a "Hospital Report Card" system, and worker's rights laws that protected whistleblowers, domestic violence victims, equal pay for women, and overtime pay.[28] His most public accomplishment was a bill requiring police to videotape interrogations and confessions in potential death penalty cases. Obama was willing to listen to Republicans and police organizations and negotiate compromises to get the law passed.[38] That helped him develop a reputation as a pragmatist able to work with various sides of an issue.[27] Obama also led the passage of a law to monitor racial profiling by requiring police to record the race of drivers they stopped."

I don't see anything about housing or urban development here. So Fitch, for all his expertise, is mostly doing guilt by association. "Some democrats in Chicago did this, Obama was was a democrat in Chicago too, so he is responsible."

I don't think that works; hang Obama for his own sins, not for those of the Daley machine.
