Obama Has Time To Meet With Whoopi & The View But Not One World Leader at UN (+video)
By Nicholas Ballasy. President Barack Obama will appear on ABC’s “The View” in New York but has no scheduled meetings with world leaders who are in the city for the United Nations General Assembly meeting.
Chris Wallace, host of “Fox News Sunday” asked Obama campaign senior adviser Robert Gibbs why the president is not meeting privately with any world leaders in New York.
“The president has blocked out time to appear on ‘The View’ on Tuesday. So he has time for Whoopi Goldberg, but he doesn’t have time for world leaders?” asked Wallace.
“No, Chris. Look, the president is going to be actively involved at the U.N. General Assembly,” said Gibbs on Sunday.
“He’s not meeting in private with leaders. He’s giving a speech.” Read more from this story HERE.
