Well, it looks like President Barack Obama will be making his rounds out to Los Angeles this week, which means Angelenos will be experiencing... Obamajam 2014.
Our President will be flying into LAX on Wednesday (and on the road during peak traffic) to make it in time for the USC Shoah Foundation’s 20th anniversary dinner, according to LA Observed. Then on Thursday, he'll be making appearances at a Democratic National Committee fundraiser and other fundraisers, even trekking out to San Diego. He's expected to leave our City of Angels late Thursday morning.
