COLLEGE STATION - When President Obama arrives at Texas A&M on Friday, several thousand protestors will also be on hand.

Texas A&M's Young Republicans have teamed up with students at several state universities, the Bryan/College Station Tea Party, and other Republican organizations.

They say they are expecting thousands of people to protest Obama's ideology and policies when he visits the A&M campus for a forum on community service.  The forum will be hosted by former President George H.W. Bush.

In a letter sent to the Texas A&M community on Wednesday, the former President said Obama's visit is about community service and not politics.
