Have you ever seen a US President at an event or passing by in a motorcade?

I interviewed Bill Clinton (while he was still governor of Arkansas) and was in the audience of the first presidential debate in 1992 in St. Louis. While it was interesting to see something like that up close, the one thing I remember more is sitting next to Steve Roberts, who was doing commentary for NPR (and is the husband of the late Cokie Roberts). When he wasn't busy I said to him, "I really don't want to bother you, but I just wanted to let you know I love your wife." He smiled at me and said, "so do I."
