From August 26 to September 1, Campaign to Travel the State to Talk about the Clear Choice in this Election

DES MOINES - During the Republican National Convention, the Obama campaign's "Heartland Tour 2012: Moving the Middle Class Forward" RV will hit the road stopping in towns and cities from coast to coast talking about the clear choice between President Obama will move the economy forward to strengthen the middle class and Mitt Romney, who will take us back to the failed economic policies of the past that caused the economic crisis.

From August 26 to September 1, prominent surrogates will join the RV to talk about how this election offers two drastically different campaign approaches and two fundamentally different visions of how to grow the economy.

President Obama believes that the only way to create an economy built to last is to build it from the middle out, not the top down.  He is fighting for middle class security by supporting manufacturing, protecting the wind PTC and preventing a tax hike on middle class families by asking the wealthiest to pay their fair share.

The "Heartland Tour 2012" RV has scheduled stops in: Ames, Anamosa, Bloomfield, Burlington, Carroll, Cedar Rapids, Centerville, Clinton, Council Bluffs, Davenport, Denison, Des Moines, Dewitt, Eldridge, Fort Madison, Jefferson, Maquoketa, Marshalltown, Mason City, Muscatine, Perry, Waterloo and Waverly.
