Associated Press

President Bush arrived in the Twin Cities today to kick off his initiative to improve science and math education, while protesters in Maplewood rallied against everything from budget cuts to the Iraq war.

Bush was scheduled to visit 3M Co. in Maplewood to talk about his school plan and an initiative to make America's workers more competitive.

Before Bush arrived, Donald McFarland, the Minnesota director of Americans United, said he expected more than 100 protesters in a parking lot near 3M. They planned to rally against everything from budget cuts and corporate tax breaks to domestic surveillance and the Iraq war.
