Renegade


Ooh, I've already picked out the next book I plan to download for the iPhone Kindle app: "Renegade: The Making of a President," by Richard Wolffe.

(Renegade, of course, is President Barack Obama's Secret Service code name, as opposed to Renaissance for Michelle, and Radiance and Rosebud for the girls.)

I don't think I understand the point of code names that everybody knows.

What good is a code name if everyone knows it??
