    Attempts? Yes. Success? No.

    The Secret Service will be pretty hardcore on this one. Serious threats to his life will be assumed 24/7 in every possible place he goes. He'll have the best security it is possible to have in this world, and the crazies who would actually want to kill him aren't clever enough to get around that.

    What Tincow said.

    Even these idiots didn't think they'd get close to Obama.

    If Obama goes too far in trying to change the country, I wouldn't rule out the crazies getting some help from mighty large corporations who might be too greatly affected by this "change" Obama wishes to make.

    Isn’t that exactly what the crazy race haters would want?

    I would give this a positive maybe. I’ll bet there are already a fringe percentage making plans but if he starts doing crazy pandering you can count on the fringe growing and his safety decreasing. The secret service is only so good.

    With all of those Secret Service guards (Presumably een more would be hired) and the FBI keeping a close eye on would-be assassins I don't think there is a good chance of Obama being assassinated. That said I certainly wouldn't want to be the guy who sold him life insurance.
