18 More Fundraising Campaign Events for President Obama, wife Michelle, and VP Biden

Of the past 7 days, President Obama had remained in Washington DC for official duties only once. That was last Wednesday. He began the day at 10:30 AM meeting with Tom Vilsack.  After a lunch with VP Biden, Mr. Obama also met with Mrs. Clinton and Mr. Panetta. The official highlight was his honoring of the 2012 NCAA Women’s Basketball Champion Baylor Bears at the White House. He ended that day attending a campaign fundraising event in Washington.

During the remaining 6 days, he attended 13 more fundraisers in the states of Florida, Nevada, California, and Oregon. Because of the tragic shooting in Colorado, the President found the opportunity to have the taxpayers pay for his West Coast swing by stopping in Colorado and meeting with families of the shooting victims.

All together, this trio attended a total of 18 campaign events in the week.
