Obama to Deliver Back-to-School Speech

Continuing his annual tradition, President Obama will deliver a Back-to-School speech on Wednesday, Sept. 28. This year's speech will be at Benjamin Banneker Academic High School in Washington, D.C.

The White House says the speech is an opportunity for the President to speak directly to students across the country. He generally encourages them to study hard, set goals, and don't give up.

The speech will also be live streamed online.

On a side note - one of President Obama's potential contenders for the White House, Rep. Michelle Bachmann, will also be speaking at a school that day. She will address convocation at Liberty University in Lynchburg, Va.

White House Wrap is Back

Hello, folks.

I am back after a summer away from the blog.

I hope you are all well, and ready to dive back into the White House Wrap.

As I get back into the groove around here, you'll notice some news from the campaign trail.  I'll be covering the GOP candidates for the White House.

Remember, you can always check in on the blogs of my amazingly talented co-workers Jennifer Wishon at the White House and John Jessup on Capitol Hill on Beltway Buzz and Chief Political Correspondent David Brody on The Brody File.
