...Obama's stop in Council Bluffs is part of a three-day campaign trip in Iowa, making his longest visit to a single state yet as he works to reach deeper into battleground states.
It will be Obama’s fifth trip to Iowa this year and is reminiscent of his 2008 Iowa caucus campaign, when he devoted weeks to campaigning in every corner of the state.
...Obama’s visit will begin Monday, and he’ll wend his way across the state with stops in smaller cities less often visited by presidents seeking re-election, campaign aides said. After Council Bluffs, he'll go to Boone, then stop Tuesday in Marshalltown, Oskaloosa and Waterloo before closing the trip with events in Dubuque and Davenport on Wednesday.
...First lady Michelle Obama is expected to join the president for the Wednesday events.
