I would like to see a copy of that check, bank draft or wh**ever.
My understanding is that when the current sitting President, Vice President, First Lady, etc. go out to help campaign and help a candidate, all expenses are to be reimbursed back to the United States from the campaign headquarters of the party they are campaigning for. That would be a sizable sum of money when you consider use of Air Force One, private t***sportation of some kind, secret service men, hotels and on and on and on. I would like to see the amount the DNC gives back this year and I would like to also see check copies from (the DNC and RNC) for previous years. Somehow I bet that amount of money never gets back into the coffers of America. The other problem that I have with this is that if the President is out campaigning he isn’t tending to his job.

Most presidents did something except w. Jr an bill Clinton cuz the respective candidate didn't want them too.
So no new news here. Except a very whiny lil fellaaa.
Did something? Pretty flakey answer in my book. I'd like to see actual numbers, etc.

They basically pay the US govt what it would cost the president to fly first class on a commercial air. A few thousand per trip.

Google money bush spent going to Africa, ifz yuh know how
Everyone on the payroll is getting paid whether they are flying or just sitting around playing cards. That being said I do not think the costs are accurate, and probably over stated.

Me: Then get off your lazy couch bound butt and file a Freedom of Information Act request. You could get a copy of the check that way, but that would require you to actually DO SOMETHING. And, that's the difficult part, isn't it? You could also check the Clinton campaign finance reports, which are available on line. I warn you, you'll go cross eyed from the sheer boredom of reading the reports.

Me: And, you think the President can only "tend to his job" while physically in the White House? If you haven't noticed, this is the 21st Century, when secure digital communications is a fact of life. Ever notice that USAF Major with the black briefcase that follows him around all the time? No, I guess you haven't.

"Secure digital communications"? Really? Tell that to Hillary Clinton and Wikileaks. Took more stupid pills this morning I see.

Obama may be better away from the WH because of the way he FU everything he touches.
I'd like to see the actual cost vs. what is paid back to the tax payers.
