Obama Makes Surprise Stop for Breakfast
OSKALOOSA, Iowa – Rolling into his first campaign event of the day, President Obama made a surprise stop for coffee and muffins at a local breakfast spot.
“Hello, everybody,” the president declared as he walked into the Coffee Connection in Knoxville, Iowa, before working the room.
Obama spent time chatting with the owner, who is a Republican running for country supervisor, about his business and was overheard saying that “this is what America is all about … and I’m going to contribute by buying something.”
The president ordered coffee, an ice tea, muffins and a cinnamon roll, according to pool reports, before turning to the diners and asking, “Anyone else need anything? I’m buying.”
