    "AP President Obama will travel to Copenhagen to make a pitch for Chicago’s Olympic bid, White House officials have confirmed to NBC News.

    Obama will leave for Denmark Thursday night, hours after his wife Michelle departs for the vote. The president made the final decision Saturday night after returning from the G20 summit in Pittsburgh.

    "The President decided over the weekend that he wanted be a part of the final push as we enter the home stretch," Jarrett told Politico.com"

    Its good to see that Obama is focusing on the issues that are most important.
