I have no problem with giving the President of the United States the
tightest possible security. If George Bush had been in Des Moines, I would
have completely understood the treatment I received.
Giving a dime-a-dozen politician this kind of protection, however, is
patently absurd.
Once they're the candidate of their party, there's way too much of a
chance that an assasination attempt could alter our elections. It makes
sense to protect them as if they were already President/Vice President.
