Obama's Presidential Motorcade on Veteran's Day

Video was taken at the corner of 17th Street and Constitution Ave. Obama was on his way to Arlington National Cemetary to give a speech at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier on Veterans Day 2009. The first two limos are Cadillac DeVilles but the third one that was closest to me had the President in it. Obama was sitting in the back right seat to the window. The next several SUVs carried SWAT personnel that had their windows halfway down to stick their assault rifles out in case of attack. I was at the right place at the right time =]

if you could have shaken the camera a bit more, that would have been helpful.

Rarely do you see VP flags on the VP's limousines. wow.

this was actually a joint presidential/VP motorcade. both were going to the arlington veteran's day wreath laying ceremony. the 1st 2 limo's (w/the white VP/US flags) are for the VP (1st one is a spare/2nd one carries the VP, although the VP normally rides in the president's limo in joint motorcade movements). the 2nd 2 limos (beasts) are presidential limos. the president rides in the 2nd one. the 1st one is a spare (decoy) and carries the military doc and personal aide.
