It was announced this morning in the Chattanooga Times free Press that President George W. Bush will be in Chattanooga on Wednesday in a health care round table discussion of some sort. A few years ago he was in Knoxville for an education round table. I was fortunate enough to attend the education round table.
The last and only time that he scheduled to visit East Tennessee while I have been Chairman. I went to Cades Cove for a great backdrop for a Presidential visit. The only problem between my arrival and the Presidential arrival to Cades Cove came a huge rain and lighting storm. The storm made it impossible for the Presidential helicopter from coming to Cades Cove so he made his remarks at the Knoxville airport to an empty airport hanger.
It is great for Tennessee to have the President visit early and often.
