I mean, Isnt the President supposed to stand up for All Americans? Take Obysmal for instance, how is attending numerous DNC fundraisers helping America as a whole? Is it democrat first, America second?
Non-partisan fundraiser, I see no problem with this. Arguably, why wouldn't a president attend a fundraiser for their own party, but I also hold the apparently radical view that political parties shouldn't really be making a whole lot of money. But if a president wants to support a fundraiser that deals with a particular political issues, be that climate related or women's rights or whatever, that's no unreasonable.

Yea, some of us are paying Obama to go on fundraisers for a party they don't support. Sounds like the union. If you are unionized and don't support democrats.. you money goes to support them.
Fund raising is as non partisan as it gets in the US.
The top priority of any state or national politician is fund raising for themselves and their party. Usually their spouses and family join in on the fun, too.
The Citizens United ruling took the gloves off so that sources of funding are anonymous. The public has no way of knowing who and from where is attempting to influence political outcomes.
Congress would be the very last to support an amendment to limit or control fund raising/ donations.
Nope, he's got a job and a place to do it at. Vacations are fine, but there should be limits on the amount of intrusion the secret "service" is allowed to force on the innocent citizens at the locations.
If the president is raising money for his party than only go when his party is paying the bill. It's not fair for all tax payers to pay when a lot of people don't want to vote for the person he is raising money for.
