When the "Community Organizer" showed up here in the Phoenix about two weeks ago, the entire airport area was cordoned off using busses and large trucks. The "one" walked behind a metal and human "shield".

Cops were saying they have never seen so much security for any other former president.

Someone else was saying the "one" hand picked his entire security detail.....while I cannot verify that I'll take it as being true.

My guess is that all his armed escort is Nation of islam personnel....

It could have been worse.
The president could have pulled a Fred Flintstone and asked for ketchup.

No big deal.... just coincidence.

I'm reminded of the scene where the Griswold's are eating at a Paris cafe'. Did the POTUS's food have a little French flag sticking out of it?
