It seems like President Barack and Michelle Obama have been on the campaign trail lately and they are headed towards San Francisco this month. According to SFist, the lovely couple will be visiting San Francisco on February 16 for what seems to be an interesting fundraiser gala.
In the past, Obama has been known to raise a good sum of money within the Bay Area, especially gaining campaign dollars from luncheon crowds in San Francisco and Silicon Valley. So as expected, Obama has planned a fundraising dinner right at the Pacific Heights mansion owned by an Oracle heiress and husband, a perfect location for an extravagant event with 13,800 square-foot space available.
According to reports, in order to dine with President Barack it will cost $35,800 and $100 to see the Obama at the reception.
