Good morning from The Oval, on what so far looks like a low-key day for President Obama.
There is nothing on schedule beyond private meetings with aides.
Obama returned last night from a two-day tour of college campuses in North Carolina, Colorado, and Iowa, calling on Congress to extend a program of low interest rates on student loans.
In the meantime, Obama's r e-election team announced the the president would start a series of campaign rallies on May 5.
