What is the purpose for the Obama's $200 million per day trip to India and how can it be justified?

It is a way of sticking it to "ole whitey" who he thinks got rich without deserving it.

@Gyna you do realize he is taking 3000 people, 60+ Airplanes and is reserving an entire Hotel for 10 days(something to do with security, quite frankly I don't think Obama is worth spending 2 cents on for security) And that doesn't include the feeding of 3000 people. So I have no doubt the rumors will prove to be true or close to it. As for the question I am OUTRAGED and PO'd that Obama thinks he needs to even take this damn trip to India, and then he needs to drag along 3000 people and have taxpayers foot the bill, while he has told us we must make sacrifices during this tough economic time.....Obama is a typical elitist, do as I say not a I do.But hey he did write a book about Audacity, and he is the very definition of the word!!! HOPE my ***! 2012 cannot get here soon enough. I just hope Congress can find grounds to impeach the SOB

Don't believe everything you read. This rumor will turn out to be completely false. I'm not a big fan of what he has accomplished as president so far, but I hate when rumors like this get legs under them. You'd have to be crazy to believe anyone could spend $200 mil a day, much less someone under public scrutiny. That comes out to over $66,000 per person per day. That is just silly and completely unbelievable, and only a person thriving on hate would even consider it to be truth. No, I don't think its justified that he is taking the trip with all those people, but I don't hang on to false facts to support my beliefs.

it's cheaper than him staying here.
