If you're concerned about Presidential security, you might (re)read this thread, about Bush visiting The Boeing Helicopter plant, during the last campaign.

That was in a fairly secure government supplier plant. I'm sure it would be tighter now We've come a long way from 1963 Dallas, plus the Secret Service has toys that would make Batman green with envy.

IIRC, Chicago had more homicides than US soldiers killed in Iraq this year alone.

And how many of those already have some motive to hate anyway, be it bigotry or prejudice of any flavour?

And how many of THOSE are armed enough to do it?
more than i'm very comfortable with...
hopefully fewer than I think, maybe I'm not giving some people enough credit, but...

I just hope the secret service are reeeeally on their toes.
I think they will be. I trust them.

The people that might try to assassinate him will be skinheads or KKK types - not your usual nut job. Presidential assassins are a special breed of wacko.

You might have thought that about Timothy McVeigh, too.

There is NO WAY some bozo off the street will get anywhere near him. As I've said about a thousand times before, it's the inside job you have to look out for. Someone "inside" finds a way, paves the way, marks the way, sets it all up... to get their patsy near enough to get a shot off. Then we talk about how Crazy Guy was able to pull it off. We'll talk about Crazy Guy for years, how Crazy Guy kept a nice yard, was always nice to animals, or pulled the legs off spiders, there will be a couple conspiracy theories, then the mafia that is our government shrugs a big "I don't know HOW that effer got any where near him" while they high five behind closed doors.

It's not like it hasn't been done before
