I betecknad Survivor (avsnitt 2 tror jag) frågar president Kirkman hemlighetstjänsten om att ha på sig den kullsäkra västen. Hans svar var "De två sätt som en president lämnar Vita huset är med det eller en bollkudde ut bakdörren"
Senare i nästa episod gör presidenten faktiskt detta för att återkomma till huvudstaden.
Är det faktiskt sant för verkliga presidenter? Har de någonsin faktiskt "gå ut bakdörren med i grund och botten ingen säkerhet?"
Verkliga exempel på föredragna föredragna, men inte nödvändiga
Do they ever actually "go out the back door" with basically no security?
Förmodligen inte men det är inte exakt okänt för presidenterna att "gå walkabout".
Obama var känt för det.
In Minneapolis late last month, he told a town hall meeting he liked to “tease” his Secret Service agents about how he was becoming unpredictable, before taking an unscheduled trip to a natural foods store and ice cream parlor. And in Austin earlier this week, Obama described how during a previous trip to the city, an unscheduled walk along the river had tested his detail’s nerves.
“I got about probably a mile, mile and a half, and then some people started spotting me so that by the time — Secret Service got nervous, and then by the time we got back, there was a big rope line and there was all the fuss,” Obama said.
The pull between allowing the president more freedom to engage with voters, escaping the confines of his office and the security challenges such movements create seemed crystalized in a pair of events during Obama’s trip to Denver earlier this week.
After grabbing some pizza at a photo op with individuals who had written him letters, the president decided to forgo his motorcade and instead walk down a downtown promenade. During that trip, the president was approached by — and ended up shaking hands with — a man wearing a full latex horse mask.
Later that evening, Obama dropped by a pool hall and brewery, where one patron asked Obama if he wanted to smoke pot with him.
Unscheduled trips can also have their benefits, said Mickey Nelson, who retired recently as the assistant director of the Secret Service.
“We use the element of surprise to our advantage,” Nelson said. “If we don't know were going there to the last minute, the adversary certainly doesn't know it.”
“We’ve been doing unscheduled movement since we started protecting the president in 1901,” Nelson said. “We’ve done them in war zones like Iraq and Afghanistan. We know what we’re doing.”
The Secret Service was reluctant to discuss if they had had discussions with the president’s staff about the frequency of the president’s “off the record trips,” which are happening with greater frequency as the midterm elections approach.
Det har inte förekommit någon verifierad inspelad instans av en president som går i rogue eller dömer sin hemliga serviceinformation. Medan vissa presidenter har varit kända för att gå av planerad eller bevakad rutt, har de alltid haft S.S.-agenter med dem. Det har varit rykten om JFK som går ut i DC ensam, men inget bekräftat av S. S. eller nyhetsrapporter.
Medan det är möjligt är det inte troligt att den mest kollapsade personen på planeten smygar sig bakom den mest kollapsade byggnaden på planeten.
