AAS 10/16/09Obama, Bush to hold forum at Texas A&M UniversityCOLLEGE STATION, Texas — President Obama and former President George H.W. Bush will visit Texas A&M University to tout community service.
Obama is coming to the campus Friday after being invited by Bush to speak at a presidential forum on community service. The event also honors the 20th anniversary of Bush's "thousand points of light" volunteer service movement he first mentioned in his 1989 inaugural address. The program also builds on Obama's "United We Serve" service call to all Americans.
Texas tea baggers, armed to the teeth I bet, plan to be there for sure.
Speech will be aired live here at 3:30
