Well said.:thumbsup:

 

[joecool]

for the current one, not only would i not take the bullet, i'd hold him in front of it!

i gotta ask, do you get fired from the secret service if you failed to take a bullet for the president? i mean, when JFK was killed did they fire the whole squad?

 

[Isla]

For Abraham Lincoln or FDR, yeah. For the current president? No way.

Ever see the movie, The Dead Zone? Great movie. Interesting how this thread made me think of that!!!

 

[daniel1113]

I'd take a bullet for the likes of Thomas Jefferson or Ron Paul (he's taking the presidency in '08) any day.

The other idiots are on their own.

 

[BooGiMaN]

If your a Secret Service agent..thats you job what your paid to do isnt it?

im sure they are trained to do such things without even thinking about it.

 

[ch33zw1z]

No

 

[RichUK]

Don't be silly.

 

[StageLeft]

I sure as all hell wouldn't

 

[hiromizu]

Sure for a nice compensation that goes towards my family and only if the same bullet is going to hit and kill that moron after it hits me. Otherwise absolutely not!

 

[Wuffsunie]

If it was a true leader, some who actually inspires a country and leads them in a positive direction, quite probably.

If they're anything like a majority of the politicians and other leaders, then hell no.

In fact, there are numerous cases where I'd probably give them a push into the path.

 

[compuwiz1]

The better question might be "would the President take a bullet for you?"

I doubt the current one would.

And my answer is: I don't take bullets for animals, especially Chimpanzee's. :laugh:

While I?m not a fan of this President, I'd say absolutely. If that figurehead that holds that office isn?t worth taking a bullet for then everything that office stands for is meaningless.

Of course, I?m not a fan of getting shot so in that moment fear might take over and I?d get the hell out of the way?

 

[Kelemvor]

Need a poll for this one..

And I say NO. Only person I'd do that for is my wife and daughter.
