  3. President Obama visited Rhode Island today on the issue of an endorsement for governer Frank Caprio. Obama wanted to stay neutral even though Caprio was a democrate as well as Obama. Later today, Caprio stated his feelings on Obama's endorsement: "he can really shove it". Caprio feels as though Obama did not help RI when there was our flood, and now he feels as though Obama is using us as a "giant ATM". Caprio no longer wants Obama's help anymore, which may or may not potentially cause problems within the government over Caprio's comments.

  4. Obama flew dow to Rhode Island today to go to Providence and Woonsocket. He is not endorsing any campaigns, and that is angering some of the politions running in RI. He is only visiting for simple reasons, mostly just to check up on the state. any people say he has been ignoring us since the flood in March, that cost alot of money in repairs.

  8. Who? President Obama
    when? A week before the midterm elections
    where? Rhode Island, specifically American Cord & Webbing Co. Inc., a Woonsocket Factory
    What? President Obama visited Rhode Island
    Why? to try to convince voters there's good reason to pick Democrats over Republican candidates in November, specifically describing how Democrats are trying to recover from the recession, while Republicans are not.

  13. Who: President Obama
    When: Monday
    Where: Rhode Island, Orchard Ave. in Providence
    What: The president is visiting our state
    Why: Obama is coming to find out about the problems that Rhode Islanders are facing and to see if he can help us. I think that another reason Obama is coming to Rhode Island is because we are mostly a democratic state, so he knows a majority of our state voted for him to be president.

I am glad that the president is coming to Rhode Island because he has been in office for almost 2 years now and hasnt came to RI.

  27. I also agree with Halyley's reasons why Barack Obama's visited Rhode Island. This reason being to help replace the retiring rep. Patrick Kennedy. Also my personal opinion on why Barack Obama is visiting Rhode Island is to not only to aid David Cicilline, but to also discuss the problems in the Rhode Island area, such as the economics of our state. In addition, as president,Barack Obama should be exposed to as many places as possible. By visiting a variety of places, he may brainstorm ideas on making the country better as a whole.
