Staff Gaffe: White House announced that VP Biden would be attending campaign events in “Road Island”

Sometimes, spell check just isn't enough.

Via NY Daily News:

Joe Biden’s camp might be overly-reliant on spell-check.

The White House recently announced that the Vice President would be attending campaign events in “Road Island.”

The glaring misspelling of the Ocean State showed up in a widely-distributed press release detailing Biden’s upcoming travel plans.

After spending the holiday weekend in Wilmington, Del., the VP will make stops on Thursday in Boston, Mass., Manchester, New Hampshire, and finally, Providence, Rhode Island.

Michelle Obama has increased that to 22 employees at a cost of $1,495,700 per year.

WND reported:

The first lady of the United States is not elected, has no constitutional duties and receives no salary, but that doesn't mean the position is without its privileges – including a staff of 22 White House employees who make a combined nearly $1.5 million per year.
