President Barack Obama returns to the Bay Area on Thursday for some more fundraising and to deliver a key policy message.

When the president arrives Thursday evening, his first stop will be a reception in Palo Alto, followed by dinner at the Portola Valley home of venture capitalist Vinod Khosla.

The president will stay in the South Bay overnight.

Before he leaves for Southern California on Friday, the president will deliver a statement touting the benefits of his Affordable Care Act.

Can someone point me to the job description manual for president that says he is required to do at least one fundraiser somewhere random in the country each day.

Not to mention a position that is supposed to represent the whole population of the country, doesn’t seem to be appropriately used to fight against the interests of half the country.

All this Kenyan fundraising is costing the American taxpayers a fortune. Whatever happened to that sequestration bull****? Doesn’t that cover fundraising?

Wasn’t he here when he made fun of the Pennsylvania people for clinging to their God and guns.

Obama is for the little people, like all Democrats.

Does this man spend ANY time in the Oval Office? Or does he just keep on campaigning?

Air Force One has an office. He can do his scheming as easily at 35,000 feet/$189,000.00 an hour as he can in the Oval Office.

It isn’t just about fund raising on this one.

Khosla has been very interested in “Green Technology” for at least the last 13 years.

This is a quid pro quo. Barry gets loot for his party, Khosla will get new investors and firms to partner with and some government help at some point.

Khosla had the best returns of any VC for a while, but I don’t know if his green technology investments have paid off like his previous ones.

Oh, that’s the band-aid to cover his campaigning on our dime, eh? Democrat welfare.
