And -- were pretty close in the first anniversary of the operation that killed Osama bin Laden the administration then.

The Obama campaign would obviously prefer to be talking about that.

There's no doubt about it they wanna tell that they see that is one of the president's biggest accomplishments Vice President Biden flatly saying there should be a bumper sticker that says General Motors is alive.

And bin Laden is dead.

Our president.

My husband Barack Obama.

Visiting Fort Stewart in Georgia to sign an executive order cracking down on cheating colleges that prey on service members and veterans.

President Obama also alluded to the Navy SEALs who helped kill Osama bin Laden one year ago this weekend.

To the members of the special operations forces community.

While the American people may never know the full extent of your service they will surely speak about you kept our country safe and strong.

That dovetails with his reelection team earlier today.

Capitalizing on the anniversary to release new footage of former President Bill Clinton reminding voters that bin Laden raid was a gutsy call.

Then went on to say quote.

It's not worth moving heaven and earth spending billions of dollars just to catch.

One person the Romney camp fired back that beyond bin Laden the president has a weak hand on issues like Iran.

Is president Obama's track record.

That has sent the message to our friends and allies to -- looking to American leadership who are really left exposed.

And isolated in a way that I have not seen in American foreign policy history for years.

Tonight NBC news is touting the fact that the president gave anchor Brian Williams an interview yesterday inside the White House situation room.

To discuss the middle -- -- as you know Brett is very rare to get access inside that secure room.

The interview is going to air next week tied to the bin Laden anniversary likely to raise some eyebrows for an NBC has had quite a few interviews at that.
