Is it true that the president's scheduled priorities for these three matters are as follows?

1. November campaigning (to revive, maintain, expand personal political support);
2. Oslo Nobel Peace prize presentation and speech (December, 2009, to protect personal,reputational interests);
3. Afghanistan operational strategy announcement (January, 2010, security needs affecting Afghanistan, 27 involved nations and important USA national security interests).
