They are kids of POTUS? Do you want someone holding them hostage demanding he nukes France? What if he does?

Stop acting retarded.


He's still an American citizen, and he's not supposed to have any special privileges not afforded to the rest of us. Like any other father, he should be responsible for the well-being of his children. And in the event that his children were kidnapped and the kidnappers demanded he take some course of action that would affect the nation, he would be temporarily removed from office.

Stop acting retarded.

edit: And in response to your pictures of presidential assassinations (not all successful), you will notice that I've never said we shouldn't guard the president. Guarding him is a necessary means to keep continuity in the government. If a president gets killed, is a tragedy, but no more so than the massacre of a school full of small children. They deserve at least some modicum of protection as well.
