Confirmed: Obamas Will Visit Martha’s Vineyard This Summer
Posted by: Baller-in-Chief in ArticlesThis, according to a piece that ran today on Politico.com:
President Barack Obama and his family plan to vacation next month on Martha’s Vineyard, Democratic sources said.
The trip has long been rumored on the island, where federal agents were reported to be checking out property last spring.
The plan puts the Obamas in one of America’s most diverse resort areas. The enclave of Oak Bluffs has long been a favorite vacation spot for the nation’s African-American elite.
The Vineyard was a favorite vacation spot of President Bill Clinton and his wife, Hillary, now Obama’s secretary of state.
An article about the Vineyard in New York Magazine reported: “In the past, Obama has spent time playing golf with Vernon Jordan, swimming off South Beach, playing basketball … reading and watching the ferries, and taking the girls for ice cream on Circuit Avenue.”
On the subject of basketball, as reported here last week, the president will have several options for where to play.

Obama will visit Italy in July and they’re planning to build a basketball court for him so that he can play basketball during his stay. Also, the article doesn’t mention it, but I heard he should be playing basketball with a couple of Italian basketball players and there have been meetings about this game between White House officials and Italian basketball officials.
