Henderson, Nevada (CNN) - President Barack Obama took a break Monday from his debate prep for a thank-you stop at one of his local campaign offices.
While visiting the South Henderson Obama for America office, he sat down to make calls to several campaign workers to thank them for their work. When asked how he was enjoying his debate preparation time in Las Vegas, he responded, "Basically they're keeping me indoors all the time. It's a drag," he joked. "They're making me do my homework."

After a morning of practicing for Wednesday night's first presidential debate, Obama drove about 25 minutes from his hotel to the campaign office, located in a strip mall just outside Las Vegas. He delivered pizza to about 20 workers to thank them for their work on his re-election bid.
He reminded the volunteers that the election is only 36 days away and that Nevada is a critical to winning in November.
"One thing we've got control over is how hard we're working in the field," the president said. "What you guys are doing is more important than anything in this campaign."

More important than the $250 million spent for personal attacks on Mitt Romney?!?! More important than the 5 monthly visits to Ohio? More important than the Presidential free pass to illegal immigrant children?!?! More important than the relaxation of welfare work rules that had been in place and successful for years?!?! Wow. That's important stuff they are doing.
Way to Go! Chief.
Moving Forward with you
That is exactly right. What do you expect out of GOP thugs? 47% commentator??? Nasty rethuglicans. Yes, as a very strong voice. Obama12.
PS: nation in right direction. True.
Obama I am also working at my 60 years of age. For you, buddy.
Oh good lord. And this alleged man is our president?
He is a whiny little boy man.
He is an embarrassment to manhood.
"Doing his homework" must be a new experience for him
I would say you are a day late and a dollar short. You said you were the one we were looking for. But we are worse off than when you took office. You should have done your Homework 10 years ago.
He is always showing love and appreciation
About time you did something but spend our tax dollars on nothing but failed policies and no leadership skills.
The man does not know what work is
N0 thanks vote for presdient obama
