Dumbest Scene - First Lady


This movie started off so good, and went down hill so quick...other threads have posted numerous issues, but to me the dumbest scene was the ending with the first lady walking in circles in the parking lot with no SS coverage. Once the President was removed, her detail (different that his) would have moved her to a secure location no where near the building.

Also, the anyone under SS protection is trained how to be removed. It is a technique where they lock there arms so they can be literally carried out of the room. The agents are trained that their feet never are to touch the floor in order to avoid tripping. It is a very well choreographed maneuver.

Check out "Protecting the President" by Dennis McCarthy. I read this a long time ago and really learned a lot about how it all works. Fascinating at how detailed they are in their mission. The sections on the advance team is incredible.
