BREAKING: Obamas Purchased House in Asheville, NC for Post-Presidency
ANTHEA MITCHELL GOOGLE+ TWITTER | MORE ARTICLES
JUNE 08, 2014
Sources have confirmed the Obamas purchased real estate in Asheville, NC. The White House has not yet confirmed.
It seems all the bookmakers sending the Obamas to New York City or back to Chicago after the end of the Presidents second term are wrong by a few thousand miles.
A source close to Wall St. Cheat Sheet has confirmed that the Obama family have purchased property in the city of Asheville in North Carolina as a post-Presidency residence. A call to get an official confirmation from the White House wasnt immediately returned.
The President discussed retirement there last year during his trip to North Carolina during a speech in Asheville. Love coming to Asheville, said Obama. Michelle and I always talk about how after this whole presidency thing, were looking for a little spot to here an audience member said, Come on down Come on down? Play a little golf, do a little hiking, fishing, barbecue, said Obama. Theres two things that keep bringing me back here. Number one is I really like the people. And number two is 12 Bones, which I will be stopping on the way back to the airport. On the one hand, a smaller city like Asheville doesnt offer the same enormous population to lose oneself in as does New York or Chicago. On the other, the president and his wife clearly like the area.
The president first visited the Asheville area during the campaign, and he liked it so much that he vowed to take his family there. The president and first lady are planning to spend a quiet weekend enjoying some of the many things this beautiful part of the country has to offer, reported the White House. This, of course, led to a great deal of vacation like the president slogans from the citys tourism industry. Find out for yourself what makes the Asheville area a vacation destination worthy of a president! reads an Asheville Chamber of Commerce posting.

I bet the people of North Carolina are pissed, he will be a black mark on the state, he is not wanted anywhere except maybe living with ISIS or Kenya. He should go home to one of these 2 places and live with his people.

Cami Marievera I am White and I am educated and I have lived in the mountains in Applachia and you are correct the hicks as you call them who live there are not educated for the most part. I will say they are honest hard working people who don't ask for any hand outs. I would ask Ms Cami Maievera have you ever been up to the mountain north of Ashville? Maybe, you should visit before you make your comments. I will say I am not, have never been and never will be a fan of Obama's. He has destroyed this country. I would love to see him go to Kenya and not even live in the United States once we are rid of him in the office of the Presidency.
