Every electron going from that thing to, well, anywhere would probably get intercepted by somebody for one reason or another.
The guy's going to be in the spotlight enough as is without Fox News surrounding all his relatives' houses with packet sniffers looking for something to misinterpret.
Couple that with the fact that everyone he emails would have to have the key to decrypt it (and know how to do that!) and access to it would probably become an open secret to an obsessed-enough reporter soon enough.
You'd also have the potential issue in that case of the president sending encrypted messages out of the White House, which would open up all sorts of cans.
11. The best recent example of why everything has to go through
and be retained by the White House and government is Gov. Sarah Palin and her multiple email accounts that may or mayn't have emails that may or mayn't be Alaskan government related.
More simply put. Send everything to government archives so the Republicans can't whine and kwetch!
Bush doesn't believe in the Presidential records act...and neither does Obama, he will prove this when he doesn't prosecute Bush for violation such laws.
