SAN DIEGO, CA - Barack Obama will make what's likely to be his final trip to San Diego as president on Sunday, as he arrives in town to speak at a fundraiser for Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.

According to the White House, the president will arrive aboard Air Force One at Marine Corps Air Station Miramar on Sunday evening, and speak at the Hillary Victory Fund reception Monday at an undisclosed private location.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi and Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee Chairman Ben Ray Lujan are also scheduled to appear at the fundraiser. The event will reportedly be limited to 45 attendees, and costs $10,000 per person to co-host or $33,400 per couple to be co-chairs.
