Road trip! Obama on course to be most-traveled prez ever

[Geee]

Washington Examiner:

President Obama, who spent 95 days overseas during his first term despite a prolonged reelection bid and coast-to-coast PR campaigns for Obamacare and gun control, is on course to spend more time out of the country than any president in history, edging Bill Clinton by two days, according to a new analysis.

The National Taxpayers Union Foundation, making a two-term projection based on Obama's travel practices and the pattern of second-term presidents taking more overseas trips, told Secrets that Obama will likely spend 235 days out of the country, two more than Clinton's 233. That is nearly two-thirds of a year overseas.

First lady Michelle Obama is also proving to be a frequent-flier, spending 55 days overseas in the first term. But that is 22 shy of Laura Bush, the most traveled former first lady. Bush during her eight years in the White House spent 212 days out of the country, a record Michelle Obama isn't likely to break based on her travel patterns, said NTUF.
