Obama Heads to Wisconsin and Los Angeles Aug. 16

Obama will stop first in Wisconsin, then head out to Los Angeles:

Obama will tour ZBB Energy Corp., which makes batteries and fuel cells that get used in renewable-energy products. Then he’ll headline a $250-a-plate fundraiser for Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett, who is locked in a competitive race for governor.

Barrett was one of the earliest supporters of Obama the candidate in 2008, and he’s more than happy to welcome Obama the president now, said Phil Walzak, a spokesman for the mayor. BH

On Tuesday, Aug. 17, Obama will be in Seattle.
