When the President comes to town you’ve got to be ready.

Saturday afternoon, a group of democratic supporters got together to make signs for President Obama’s visit.

"Everybody's excited. It's not every day that you have the President coming to Texas, and so we’re very excited about it," Organizing for America spokesperson Hector Nieto said.

Organizing for America is a group that grew out of Obama for America, a grassroots campaign organization that worked to get Obama elected President.

They plan to rally Monday at the corner of Cesar Chavez and Red River, to welcome the president as he drives through town.
