Invite Obama to Atlanta, we already did

C. We're not big enough. This is the president we're talking about here, folks. This is the most powerful man in the world. We aren't big enough yet. We're close, but this is the man who single-handedly packs millions for speeches.

Exactly, there is no way that the secret service would ever allow the president to go in an arena like the Georgia Dome. There are too many positions and scenarios where someone could inflict harm to him. Also it puts all of the attendees at even greater risk, if there was even a hint of him coming to it.

The best option for him would be to give a pre recorded video speech for all to see. George Bush did this in 06.
