President Obama to Visit CNSE in Albany, N.Y.
President Barack Obama will visit the College of Nanoscale Science and Engineering in Albany, N.Y. next Tuesday, making a campaign speech on the economy there.
The President’s visit, originally planned to be held at GlobalFoundries Fab 8, was moved to the CNSE’s NanoTech Complex at the State University of New York in Albany “for logistical reasons.”
It will be the president’s third visit to the region, including a tour of a General Electric facility and a visit to the Hudson Valley Community College. Earlier, the White House had considered a plan to the fab’s construction site, but the lack of a finished building and security concerns over the single road into the plant caused the visit to be delayed.

Oh boy our narcissist community organizer in chief is campaigning again. Please spare the partisan blathering and concentrate on technology. Remember anything out of Washington is driven by lobbying not technology.

A short news snippet regarding the presidents itinerary seems appropriate to this industries interests.That facility is built on state university grounds funded by NY and US political-corporate cooperation.
I don`t see any “blather” in those four sentences.The comments are another matter.
