Whitehouse.gov and his campaign site. Should be a schedule on one of them,

Ohio, Pennsylvania, Iowa, Wisconsin, Virginia, NC for instance, you'll no doubt get many chances to see Obama and/or Biden.

is to raise money at this point, but you never know.

You get to hear about all this stuff while it's still just in the pipeline, as it were.
Just another advantage to real world involvement.
