WASHINGTON (AP) President Barack Obama meets with the president of Haiti Wednesday morning and later flies to Missouri for another gathering on health care reform.

The president sits down in the Oval Office with Haiti's President Rene Preval (reh-NAY' preh-VAHL') before the two leaders make statements in the Rose Garden. Among those there to hear them will be members of Congress, Haitian-American community leaders and people and organizations involved in the earthquake relief effort.

In the afternoon, Obama will be in Missouri to speak at a high school about health insurance reform. In the evening, he'll speak at a fundraising dinner in St. Louis for Democratic Sen. Claire McCaskill. The president will also give remarks at a grass-roots fundraising reception for McCaskill before flying home.
