WASHINGTON - President Bush departed for California on Wednesday to meet with Gov.-elect Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Bush will be in the Golden State for a two-day stopover en route to a six-nation tour of Asia and Australia. While in California, he'll give two speeches on the economy and attend a pair of re-election fund-raisers.
The White House is hoping the action star's victory last week in the nation's most populous state bodes well for Bush's campaign in 2004. The meeting takes place on Thursday _ after which Bush heads to Tokyo.
Bush's nine-day trip is focused on the annual Asia-Pacific summit, hosted by Bangkok this year. He's also visiting the Philippines, Singapore, Indonesia and Australia. He's pressing for more troops and aid to help stabilize Iraq and help fight the broader war on terror.
