Pelosi's schedule:
| 8/6/2008 | Temple Judea, Miami, FL |
| 8/7/2008 | Borders Books, Ann Arbor, MI |
| 8/11/2008 | American Jewish University, Los Angeles, CA |
| 8/12/2008 | Dominican University, San Rafael, CA |
| 8/13/2008 | Forum for Women Entrepreneurs, Redwood City, CA |
| 8/14/2008 | Cowell Theater, San Francisco, CA |
| 8/20/2008 | Tattered Cover Bookstore, Denver, CO |
