[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Do POTUS candidates wear body armor??

fishstix Joined Oct 2007 Posts 386 EE Offline IL, USA	Posted: 6/5/2008 3:55:30 PM EST Just saw a pic of the Prez and he was obviously wearing BA. At what point do the candidates start wearing it out in public? What if Hilldog was the Dem candidate or eventually became prez, how would she conceal it under her pant suits?? Just curious

Not BA, it's a heart defibrillator system thingy

You could see them during the debates when he was running for pres as well. I don't keep up with him enough to see if he still wears them, just assumed he did.

I was just curious what the thoughts were on this. For all the public appearances they make and the gravity of what they are trying to accomplish, just seems they would be well protected. Bobby Kennedy comes to mind.

It doesn't matter. Only the dumbest of potential assassins would consider anything but a head shot and the weapons likely to be used by a sniper would probably be of the variety that would scream right through a conventional vest/plate setup.
