However,when it began in 1865,it was started to protect money.A third to a half of all US money during the Civil War was fake (假的).President Abraham Lincoln created the United States Secret Service to find those responsibly.

◇The Secretary of State,National Security Adviser and others.The Secret Service also protects 80 to 200 visiting foreign political leaders every year.

Rules for president
◇Limousines (豪华轿车) that can withstand a missile are used.
◇Entering and exiting are never done on a street.
◇Exact travel plans are kept secret.
