*If Bauer can get shot in the neck and live, why cant President Palmer? We never saw the face under the blanket, so how do we know it was him, and that they didn't replace his body to make the world think he was dead, like they did with Jack, to protect him from the Chinese? My pukin prediction?
When all seems lost, President Palmer saves Jack Bauer. I don't think he is really dead. I Tivo'd the show and watched it twice, looking for clues.
