The 2016 summer Olympics will not be held in the United States but in Rio de Janeio, Brazil. We will not be host the Olympics in Chicago, Ill. The United States bid was not enough nor was the speech as impressive as the president of Brazil Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva's was."It was extraordinary the emotion we put into our presentation," Lula told reporters. "I almost cried two times during my speech.” The loss of the united states hosting the Olympics is one of the biggest failures to date says the NY Times. President Barack Obama thought that the Olympics would be a good thing for the United States. If you don't remember the United States won 110 medals at the last summer Olympics and won more medals out of all the teams/ countries.
In the next summer Olympics the United States is predicted to win the most medals again. The United States is known as one of the best basketball teams; we beat China with 110 medals to their100 medals. The last summer Olympic games were in Beijing, China. The 2010 winter Olympic games will be held in Canada. The 2012 summer Olympic games will be held in London.
