Thank you for the ping! I would not be surprised if some measures were not taken with regard to Clinton after he "forgot" the football in one instance.

Associated Press 4/24/99 "...President Clinton departed the NATO summit in such haste Saturday that he left behind perhaps the most important piece of luggage in the world - the ``nuclear football.'' The president's military aide, who constantly shadows Clinton and carries the briefcase containing U.S. nuclear launch codes, was mistakenly left at the International Trade Center when Clinton's motorcade sped off 45 minutes early and without notice. The aide walked the 4 1/2 blocks back to the White House without incident..."

He also 'lost' his interlock device...which lets him use the 'football'.
