What? It's not normal for people to meet the president at the airport but he does do it to the "Governors" not the people running in the rat race. What took place was a scheduled time that Obama setup. Yes, Obama - allowed it, why aren't the Republicans saying how nice he is? White had nothing to talk about... it's not a conspiracy that he didn't take time out of the Presidents day to talk about nothing.
Source Dallas Morning News: "They said what they could arrange is a greeting at the airport," Cesinger said. "While it may be brief the governor is hoping to share his concerns about border security with the president." It is customary for presidents to invite governors to meet them when they arrive in their states.
Cesinger said she had no details about the meeting.
Perry's Democratic opponent, Bill White, says he has no plans to meet Obama while he's in Texas.
"The plans have not changed," White spokeswoman Katy Bacon said. She also took a swipe at Perry, saying the governor had "failed for ten years to get the resources for the border."
Earlier Friday, Perry said he welcomed the opportunity to meet Obama even if for a brief moment outside the president's plane.
"Being the president, we'll obviously meet him on his terms," she said.
