President Obama on Sunday will travel to Moore, Oklahoma, the town devastated by a deadly tornado that killed 24 and damaged an estimated 12,000 homes. The White House said the president wants to get a firsthand look at the wreckage, and he will also attend a service at Moore's First Baptist Church on Sunday. On Saturday, three public high schools in Moore held back-to-back graduation ceremonies at the Cox Convention Center in Oklahoma City. "I wouldn't want to be in any other place," Brooke Potter, 18, told the Associated Press about leaving Oklahoma, despite the deadly tornadoes. "It's our roots. Tornadoes are a part of life here."
