In a two-day trip to the Bay Area starting Thursday, President Obama will include high level political fundraising with Silicon Valley tech stars — and a visit to a Walmart to talk energy efficiency.

The big news: Obama’s star turn at a Democratic National Committee fundraiser at Y Combinator in Mt. View has been changed to a new location because of logistics and security considerations. The event, co-hosted by Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer and Y Combinator CEO Sam Altman, is now slated at the Fairmont Hotel in San Jose, sources say.

The White House Wednesday released some new details on his trip: he is expected to make a stop at Walmart in Mt. View on Friday to talk about energy efficiency.

*** He then heads to Los Angeles for events to benefit the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee and the Democratic National Committee.

He’s also being honored by the USC Shoah Foundation in Los Angeles, an organization founded by film producer Steven Spielberg, who is also a major Democratic donor.

In the Bay Area, Air Force One will touch down late Thursday, and Obama will head to the Los Altos home of biotech analyst and entrepreneur Anne Wojcicki, who will host an intimate tech round table discussion for 25 donors paying $32,400 for the opportunity.

KEYWORDS:
Obama receiving a Shoah award is like Donald Sterling receiving a lifetime achievement award from NAACP. I am hard pressed to find a President that did less for Israel and the Jewish people - even Jimmy Carter advanced the peace process (though he's since lost his mind).

Of course, the real purpose is to hoover up money from Silicon Valley libs and Hollywood communists

Silicon Valley folks are paying over thirty-two large for a discussion on technology with a guy who can barely turn on a Blackberry? Did I eat a hashish brownie without knowing it?
