Ridge is too vague.

He needs to at least spell out a few basic items to be aware of.

He needs to cite some examples.

Here are a few he could have easily used in telling concerned citizens of what to be more aware of:

- Suitcases and bags or boxes left unattended at airports or subways.

- Persons loitering around, climbing on, or entering into any public utility areas otherwise not accessible to the public.

- Conversations overheard where the President of the United States or any public official's life or the lives of their families have been threatened.

- Any activities or conversations witnessed or overheard where terrorist activities (e.g., sabotage, espionage, subterfuge, murder, extortion, or blackmail) are believed to be active against the interest of the United States, it's territories, or it's citizens.

Ridge is weak, really, really weak.

The four things you mentioned are obvious to everybody but those with shoe-sized IQs.

Ridge is NOT going to be specific, no matter how much some on this site want him to be.

I disagree that he's weak. He's got a thankless job, and much happens behind the scenes that you will NEVER know about.
