There is a way that I believe President Bush can really, really help our country in general, and the airline/travel/tourist industry in particular.
My suggestion is that the President fly Air Force One to New York's LaGuardia Airport (I know, it's in NJ!) and there take a commercial flight on a randomly chosen airline to LAX (that's Los Angeles International Airport).
He should take only two or three Secret Service Agents with him, plus one White House cameraman.
The remaining Secret Service detail should take Air Force One to LAX while the commercial the President's on is getting ready to depart from LaGuardia.
He should sit in the tourist section only. If the First Class passengers would like to meet and greet him, they should come back to that section.
While en route to LAX, he should banter and mix with the passengers, offering to have his photo taken with them as momentos, etc.
When this commercial flight finally arrives at LAX, the passengers will deplane and tell everyone within earshot (and camerashot, hehe)
of their marvelous experience flying with Mr. Bush.
The President demonstrates forcefully with his own act, that the skies are safe once again, and that people should come out of their bomb shelters! Better than any press conference ever could!
At the same time, he's thumbing his nose at the groups who are responsible for our national tragedy, in a way that will be shown all over the planet!
And, God forbid, for any reason this plane [b]is[/b] successfully attacked and brought down, I think that America would insist that his likeness be chiseled onto Mt. Rushmore.
There should be no special security measures taken to insure his safety, other than those being taken right now for all American citizens who are compelled to fly for personal or business reasons.
I'm certain there are some flaws that need to be worked out in my proposal and welcome your comments!
