New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie blasted the National Rifle Association for an ad that pointed out President Barack Obama’s daughters have armed protection, calling it “reprehensible” and saying elected officials’ kids should be off-limits.
“I think any of us who are public figures, you see that kind of ad and you cringe,” he said during a news conference at which he announced a task force on guns and mental health.
Christie, a potential 2016 presidential contender, is the most prominent Republican to voice displeasure with the ad.
The spot calls Obama an “elitist hypocrite” for being skeptical of having armed guards at schools even though his daughters get Secret Service protection.

The point is that armed guards are ok for some….but a ridiculous extreme notion for others.
I agree with you… on the "well said" part. The "Next POTUS" part? I cannot agree with that. 🙂
Well Said Chris "Next POTUS" Christie. Well Said.
