It was almost like there was a moat system around the Romney castle. He had aides walking around with fake ear pieces in their ear, pretending that they were secret service agents. He put up a velvet rope in front of the office, made sure no one had access to the governors office whatsoever.

By 2014 it would be outsourced to China and Chinese workers will be imported to protect the President.
