St. Louis, MO – President Bush will be back in Missouri this week for the first time since helping the Cardinals open their season at Busch Stadium.

He'll attend a fundraiser Friday at a business called Hunter Engineering in suburban Bridgeton.

Hunter's chairman, Stephen Brauer, is a part-owner of the Cardinals; he's also President Bush's pick to be Ambassador to Belgium.

Brauer's wife has earned status as a Bush campaign "Ranger" by raising at least $200,000 from other contributors for the president's re-election campaign.
