Obama said it would be a shame if Anheuser-Busch was foreign-owned while speaking at a conference in St. Louis, according to a Reuters report.
"I think we should be able to find an American company that is interested in purchasing Anheuser-Busch if in fact Anheuser-Busch feels that it's necessary to sell," Obama reportedly said.
Missouri's two U.S. senators, Republican Kit Bond and Democrat Claire McCaskill, have also come forward against a potential deal with InBev and
pledged to do what they can to stop the deal.
