and from speaking tours in S.C. and the South last year I believe. Perhaps a special post about the need for this and people's concern could be placed in the BS Group, to appeal to Vets, security and law enforcement people and others who have knowledge of campaigns. There must be people here with contacts or who are familiar with high profile campaigns that could be consulted about how to raise the issue or inquire of the appropriate officials.

It's a serious matter, esp. in these times and due to his ideas. This must have been brought up and considered, but to know that professional safety measures are in place would be reassuring to followers and the country. Out of concern and selfishness because we need him so much this absolutely must be put in place if it isn't already. I'd like to think it is. In any way I can I'll gladly help.
