The First Family Detail by Ronald Kessler

 

   A good book covering the unrevealed to the public details of the people we put in office as presidential material. But not only that, you also need to understand how our elected leaders are using the secret service people assigned to them. We also need to understand the limitations put on the secret service.

   Our secret service is weak but mostly because of the lack of backbone in the leadership.

   When Lincoln signed the order that formed the secret service the purpose was to seek out counterfeit bills. It has since evolved in to protection of the president, the vice president and families. Thus the meaning of the title.

   Not all the presidents and candidates want them.

    An example is Hillary Clinton. Earlier I did a review of HRC. The sad thing to realize is she treats the common folk poorly. “She is so nasty to agents that being assigned to her detail is considered a form of punishment.”

   Biden is no better. He has the person carrying the nuclear football ride in a car at least a mile from where he is traveling, thus leaving America open to attack with no chance to fight back.

   Reagan had the man with the football ride closed to him when he was out in public.

   The weakness also comes in the feeling that no one has their back.

   This is a book revealing of the holes in the system and what need to be patched.

   I was sent this book gratis from blogging for books for review.
