Sanders to Receive Secret Service Protection
Source: The Hill
Sanders joins Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton and Republican candidates Donald Trump and Ben Carson as the only White House contenders with details from the agency.
It is not clear what prompted the move or what Sanders code name will be.
Carson and Trump each requested protection last year amid their turbulent presidential campaigns, and Clinton retained her detail from her time as first lady.
Trump's code name is "mogul," a nod to his status as a billionaire businessman, while Carson's is "Eli," a reference to the Biblical prophet. Clinton goes by "Evergreen."

(1,786 posts)I did not know that. I read that Trumpus Rex was (which I thought was funny given what tough guy he is...although he did run right to the FBI over a reply he got after he popped off on Twitter about El Chapo). I knew HRC was for obvious reasons. Wonder why the Secret Service decided Sanders needs it...hmmm
