And who has not been threatened ? He wants to catch the medias eye and look as presidential as he can. I do not think he can beat Clinton for the DNC nomination.

I thought they said on the news last night night that they were not responding to any particular threats. They said it was because he was "drawing such large crowds" but doesn't everybody assume it's because he's black?

Publicity
 
What better way to get free publicity. Claim you have been threatened and sit back and let the news roll. I wonder how long it will take the Clinton machine to claim some threats.

Does anyone have any reports of Obama saying he was threatened?

Clinton already has SS protection.
