WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama will visit Alaska next week, as he begins a longer trip to Japan, China, South Korea and Singapore.
The White House says Obama will stop Wednesday at Elmendorf Air Force Base in Anchorage to refuel Air Force One. Obama will mark the Veterans Day holiday with military personnel at the base.
The visit will be Obama’s first trip ever to Alaska. He never made it to the 49th state during the 2008 campaign.

Mr. Obama needs to tend to business here in the USA, not spend his time and OUR tax money traveling to Asia!
