President Obama in Roanoke, VA

President Obama continues campaigning throughout the battleground state of Virginia on Saturday. He's talking about his "Vision for?Virginia's Middle Class" and highlighting the differences between his economic?and jobs plan and those of Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney.?

Saturday, he plans to make campaign stops at the Walkerton Tavern in Glen Allen, Va. and conclude his two-day tour of Virginia with a rally at Centreville High School in Centreville, Va.

On Friday, the President spoke at Green Run High School in Virginia Beach, Phoebus High School in Hampton and Historic Fire Station No. 1 in Roanoke, Va.

Earlier this week, the President?called on Congress to "prevent a scheduled tax increase on 98 percent on Americans, including families across Virginia" and approve his Middle-Class tax cut plan.

Romney campaign surrogates former Navy Secretary John Lehman, Congressman Randy Forbes, and former Senator Jim Talent held a conference?call with reporters on Thursday to "welcome President Obama before he arrives in Virginia on Friday."

In May, the President officially kicked off his re-election campaign with a rally at the Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond. In 2008, then-Senator Obama became the first Democratic presidential candidate to win Virginia in 44 years.
