President Barack Obama will again visit the Richmond area today as he pushes through North Carolina and Virginia advocating his jobs bill, which Republicans voted down with unemployment the nation’s biggest issue. The President will also appear in Hampton with Virginia Governor Bob McDonell as well, however, his stop in northern Chesterfield County will not be open to the public. Obama will speak to an audience of Firefighters, public safety personnel, and several local dignitaries. The trip is the President’s second into the backyard of Republican Congressman Eric Cantor, who earlier said the President’s bill was “dead on arrival”. Again, the visit is private, there will be no admittance to the public, and no access to the Buford Road Fire Station #9, where President Obama is scheduled to appear.
