Doesn't sound like the best of plans to me. In fact it seems like something that might breed a god complex. No wonder politicians feel untouchable.

Of course the President has to be protected. If not from foreign governments, then from nut jobs with hand guns. That's just common sense. The days of being able to walk up to the front door of the White House and being able to see the president is long gone.
As for me not holding them accountable by not voting, well, frankly... I was given a choice between McCain and Obama, none of which appealed to me.
And I don't think any Presidents have a "god complex". Not Bush, Clinton, Bush, or Obama.
