Another good point. His children are NO MORE important than yours or mine!
As a human being? No, they aren't.

As an extension of the Presidency? They absolutely are. To be perfectly frank, if someone held a gun to your child's head could you compromise the security of millions? Of the entire world? No. The most powerful man on the face of the Earth could, however, if placed in that situation.

Such arguments sound petty and foolish. If you're going to spend the money on the ad, at least put something of substance into it. Attack the man's policies and stances, not the fact his kids are safe.

BTW, this is certainly not a condemnation of the NRA, because they are without a doubt the sharp end of our spear, I just think the premise of the commercial is poor.
