Obama assassination plot dream...

This one was very vivid, and contained many more elements than I have recorded here. I either 'was', or was very close to, Barack Obama during the early days of his presidency. (Part of the time I seemed to be following the action on a giant telescreen, beamed into some sort of military or NASA-style bunker; at other times I was involved in the action, either as an observer of, or participant in, the First Family.) Then there was a major security alert, an attempted assassination or worse, which required Obama/me to be bundled into a small room by several burly Secret Service operatives. Inside this room- more like a nuclear fallout shelter- was ensconced the whole of the cabinet and the higher-ups of the Washington political apparatus... and bombs were falling outside. As Obama, I realised that a single strike on our location would not only wipe out my family, but the entire leadership of the American nation. Fortunately, acting against the wishes of his Secret Service handlers, through courage and diplomacy Obama averted the crisis.
