POTUS left the Kingsmill Resort in Williamsburg, were he is preparing for his upcoming debate, at 2:23 p.m. Sunday to visit the local campaign office.
The president arrived at the office, where he came into the lobby carrying a stack of pizzas.

“Hello, hello,” Obama yelled as he walked into the lobby of the office. “I brought some food.”

The president introduced himself to a small group of campaign workers in the lobby before heading into a back room, where 11 volunteers were phone banking.

Obama introduced himself to the volunteers before taking a seat between Alexa Kissinger and Suzanne Stern to make his own phone calls to local volunteers.

“I’ve got to get to work,” Obama said. “

After joking with Kissinger about “old school” phones Obama called volunteer Griselda Bayton.

“Well, I wanted to call and say thank you,” Obama said. “I’m at the over at the Williamsburg office, and I know you’ve been working so hard for the campaign. I wanted to say how much I appreciate it.”
