...Bush has devoted much of his public time this week to speeches on his initiative, culminating in the Cisco appearance, which will include a panel discussion with Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, Cisco CEO John Chambers, a San Jose State University student and education leaders focused on training a more skilled workforce.When Air Force One touches down at Moffett Field early Friday afternoon, it will mark the president's fourth visit to Silicon Valley, though he has made it to San Jose only once before, in 2002. He also is making a stop at Stanford University's Hoover Institution, home to many of his early advisers. None of Friday's events are open to the public...

...But anti-war protesters are planning to carpool from as far away as San Francisco to meet the president's motorcade at Cisco and another protest is planned at Stanford University. An immigrant rights news conference, originally set for Thursday in downtown San Jose, was moved to today, in front of Cisco headquarters.
San Jose is the first stop on a four-day visit to California, Bush's longest yet as president. After Cisco, he will travel by a Marine One helicopter to a reception organized by former Secretary of State George Shultz at Stanford University's Hoover Institution. Several Hoover fellows have been key economic advisers, and it was through Hoover that the president was introduced to Condoleezza Rice, his current secretary of state. He then will helicopter to St. Helena, where he will spend the night before heading to Sacramento on Saturday to tout fuel-cell technology.
Then he moves to Southern California to visit with military families Sunday and give a speech on immigration reform Monday.

The White House said the protesters blocked the only road into the central areaof the campus where Hoover is located, which forced a meeting with several Hoover fellows to be moved to the campus home of former Secretary of State George Shultz, a Hoover fellow who organized the gathering.
The motorcade instead traveled to the house, which is on the outer edge of campus. The change in plans delayed the president's arrival by about 15 minutes. Protesters said they were disappointed that the President would not see them and accused the President of sneaking around to avoid them.(Excerpt) Read more at mercurynews.com ...
