(THE HILL) President Obama on Friday said he sympathized with concerns about National Security Agency (NSA) surveillance because he could be targeted after leaving the White House.
Obama noted that he “will leave this office sometime in the next three and a half years,” and at that point, would “have a personal interest in making sure my privacy is protected.”
“I suspect that on a list of people who might be targeted, so that someone could read their emails or listen to their phone calls, I’d probably be pretty high on that list,” Obama said.
