San Francisco: Over 1,000 Protesters Rally Outside Obama Fundraiser 
--------------------------------------------------------------------



In San Francisco, more than 1,000 protesters rallied outside a President
Obama fundraiser at the W Hotel on Tuesday. One protester was Susie
Tompkins Buell — one of the most generous Democratic Party donors in
the nation. Bell, the co-founder of Esprit, said of Obama, "I don't even
know what he stands for." Bell and other protesters were calling on
Obama to block the proposed Keystone XL tar sands oil pipeline.
