Why can't the White House and the NSA just approach RIM and be like "Yeah, so we need a spy-proof blackberry for the most powerful person in the free world, aaaaand we want Hail the Chief as the ringtone! Mmkay?"
prolly because RIM is from Canadia
Yeah, since RIM is from Canada, he can switch to the iPhone.... Apple is just next door...
What does Canada have to do with anything? A lot of companies are from Canada. I'm sure RIM has a US division. They can do what they did with Merck (The pharma company) back in WWII. They take over the US branch from the foreign branch and use them to make chemical weapons.

I thought the whole point of the President not using e-mail or a Blackberry is to avoid the Presidential Records Act.
So, if he used a Blackberry, and every e-mail and SMS could be spied on... it would eventually become public record anyway, right? So who cares if it's not secure?
he could you a zach morris cell phone for all i care.
hes our president, eff his cell phone preference or usage.
Are you sure he's YOUR president? It doesn't sound like English is your first language... though I suppose it doesn't have to be. Just an observation.
