Gov. Walker on President Obama's 3 Day Visit to Alaska: 'We’ll have plenty to talk about'

On Friday night, Walker’s office announced he’ll accompany President Barak Obama in Air Force One as it travels from Washington, D.C., to Alaska on Monday.

Whether on that flight or in the days to follow, Walker said he’s confident he’ll get a chance to talk to the president one-on-one. In an interview Saturday, we asked Gov. Walker what was high on his list of things to discuss and for his thoughts on Obama’s visit, which is expected to include stops in Anchorage, Seward, Dillingham and Kotzebue.

Are you looking forward to it personally?

Very much.

It’s going to be a busy couple days.

It’ll be a very busy couple days. I’m honored to be governor of Alaska at the time a sitting president comes to Alaska. You bet.

Our Republican turned Independent governor is kinda cool. Wish we had more caring and rational people like him in the Republican party.

As you can see from this special section and numerous articles, Alaskans are pretty excited about this visit from President Obama

I believe the purpose of this trip is to highlight global warming.

Lower 48ers might see some excellent scenery this week, watch for President Obama's trip to Exit Glacier in Seward.
