Following a stop last Thursday by Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton for a few hours at the Sioux Falls airport for a rally, rival and front-runner Obama will make his first visit of the campaign to South Dakota, the state party said this afternoon.
Party legislative director Matt McLarty confirmed Obama will come to the state Friday, but no other details were immediately known.
Clinton's husband, former President Bill Clinton, campaigned for her on Saturday in Rapid City.
The South Dakota primary is June 3.

Obama supporters please tell us what he has accoplished in the Senate
Bills passed. What leaderhip skills he has demonstrated. What is it that he has accomplished himself on his own in the Senate. What he … read more has done other than read a good speech written by someone else. What is his international experience? When has he shown bipartisan leadership in the Senate. Just what has he done to deserve to be the most powerful man in the world. Just asking. Convince independents that he is can walk the walk AND talk the talk
