"There can be no levels of security clearance above the POTUS"
REMEMBER: The POTUS is only a politician. Do you really think they let the leader of a country know EVERYTHING? He just runs the country, and some things are better kept away from a person who has that much power. Even if he does have the highest security clearance, do YOU think the government will show him EVERYTHING? I don't think so.
So, I disagree, I can't prove it, but I think the President doesn't know what some of these agencies keep locked up behind those doors.edit on 25-9-2013 by wofat18 because: (no reason given)

You KNOW?
I'm skeptical, I can't imagine that there's that many people out there that know something like that by experience. Do you have any proof? I don't imagine you would even be allowed to explain how you would know something like that.
It doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me.

I had a TS SCI clearance and I have never heard of the so-called 'majestic' clearance except in UFO circles. Ditto with a bunch of those others listed in that upper frame. Of course things may have changed since I had mine ... but still ... I'm not too sure of the listing.
But for discussion .... if there are clearances over that of the POTUS .. GOOD!
He's just an elected politician and being elected doesn't mean he has a right
to know everything about our security and our projects.
Democrat or republican .. doesn't matter .. he's a temporary employee in DC.

I can imagine working your way through all the security levels would be a bit like sitting down and watching every single episode of "lost" in one sitting. Just when you think you have a handle on what the h_ll is going on, another plot twist comes along and you are wondering if it has something to do with that smoke monster

Some time ago the husband held a TS SCi and a Q. Id never heard of a Q clearance before that... and dont see it on that chart. Maybe because its a NRC/DOE clearance within the job he did for the DoD?? You had to have the TS with the Q to hold that position within the NRC.
