What is required to get a top level government security clearance and, can Obama get one?

Question

Considering Obama's past associations, that may be a problem.

Answer 1

First you must fill out a long questionaire.  There is a thorough background investigation.  The investigation includes interviewing most of the people that you have come in contact for the past 10 years.  The visit your places of residence for the past 10 years.  They disect your credit.  The talk to your friends and family.  The talk to all your bosses for the past 10 years.  Then they give you a polygraph for 4 hours if you pass the investigation.

If you win the Presidency then you will automatically have clearance.

Answer 2

being the president of the UNITED STATES automatically gives you a certain level of security clearance, however there is a level of security that is higher than the presidency.

Answer 3

Are you an idiot?  If you're not an idiot, don't act like one.  You were able to write correctly, so I assume you aren't.  The propaganda against Obama is just that, propaganda, and don't you KIND OF THINK that members of Congress already HAVE that level of clearance?  Do you not understand the nature of the kinds of information to which they have access?  Barack Obama is on the Senate Foreign Affairs Committee and the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.  If all the bull that's been spread about him were true, do you honestly think he'd be where he is?

I've really had enough of this and people need to develop some critical thinking skills.
