“SS doesn’t protect body doubles.”
USSS doesn’t ‘officially’ hide people from media or coverup illnesses either.
But they obviously did now. And for FDR. And for Kennedy. And who knows for who else...
But, they were NOT there, surrounding her. There were strangers standing out on the street as close as just across the street and including the little girl, who was obviously staged, yet instead of the usual Secret Service guards walking next to her, they were no where to be seen. Every where we've seen Hillary in the past several weeks, there's been someone at her side waiting to catch her should she stumble. This time? No one within 20-30 feet as she comes out, chats with and hugs the little girl, and then almost skips down the sidewalk. It doesn't wash with me.

I’ve wondered about this. Wouldn’t be surprised that their directives include, in addition to safeguarding their charge’s well-being, also preserving their projection of power and a distinguished air.
In could be argued that our leaders’ appearance of power and health aids in our national defense. Not a stretch to think the USSS is charged with helping to preserve that image.
