PROBLEM: The 32-year-old Wisconsin man was not a threat to Sundayâs Chicago Marathon  and it was believed he was in town to drop off a friend at OâHare International Airport  said  chief Chicago police spokesman Anthony Guglielmi .
Around 8 a.m.  Chicago police assigned to O'Hare stopped a vehicle for speeding near the Kennedy Expressway on Cumberland Avenue   Guglielmi  said.
Once police pulled them over  an officer saw a handgun in the 2005 Mitsubishi Galant. Police were then told that an AR-15 rifle was in the trunk   Guglielmi  said.
In addition to 217 rounds of ammunition  police found a pressure cooker device in the trunk of the car. But it was inspected by Chicago police and the FBI  who determined that the device was not being used as a weapon  but rather for cooking   Guglielmi  said.
Three people were inside the vehicle  and all were taken into custody   Guglielmi  said.
"Runners and spectators in Sunday's marathon "can expect to see a very visible presence of Chicago police officers ''  Guglielmi  said in an emailed statement.

PROBLEM: After his reelection in 2004 , Bush sought major changes to Social Security , arguing a partial privatization plan could insure its solvency . 
The legacy of George W. Bush remains , much like his 2000 election , a subject of profound controversy , and any truly objective evaluation will likely be years in the future . 
The election of 2000 and the Supreme Court case of Bush v. Gore remain two of the most controversial political developments in the last half-century . 
Some thought that President Bush should begin his term by trying to find common ground and avoid controversy to take some of the edge off the nation 's polarized politics coming out of the 2000 election . 
Instead , as one of his first actions , President Bush issued an executive order creating the Office of Faith-Based and Community Initiatives , which further alienated some who thought government money should not go to organizations affiliated with churches . 
The Bush presidency transformed American politics , its economy , and its place in the world , but not in ways that could have been predicted when the governor of Texas declared his candidacy for America 's highest office . 
Within nine months of taking office , President Bush was afforded the chance to unite the nation after the terrorist attacks of September 11 , 2001 . 
By most accounts , Bush did a masterful job of speaking for and to the American people . 
As President , Bush became a lightning rod for controversy . 
Following an authorization from Congress to eliminate those who perpetrated the attacks of 911 , Bush ordered an invasion of Afghanistan . 
Those early successes , however , turned into the longest war in American history , and the President never was able to achieve the greatest symbolic goal of the effort , the killing or capturing of the mastermind of the attacks , Osama bin Laden ; U.S. special forces achieved that goal in 2011 under Bush 's successor , President Barack Obama . 
Following the 911 attacks , President Bush also presided over a restructuring of the American national security apparatus and the passage of the Patriot Act , which gave the government vast new powers in the effort to combat future acts of terror . 
Both efforts , especially the Patriot Act , sparked strong divisions within the American people throughout the Bush presidency . 
In 2002 and into 2003 , Bush used the fear of further terrorist attacks to argue for a preemptive war on Saddam Hussein 's Iraq under the rationale that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction . 
The last few months of the Bush presidency were marked by a major crash of the stock market , a controversial bail out of financial institutions and car companies , and a recession that would wipe out millions of jobs and impact the U.S. economy for many years . 
President Bush 's place in U.S. history will be debated and reconsidered for many years to come . 
On the domestic front , the Bush presidency scored early successes in gaining passage of large tax reductions and a major reform of the American educational system with the No Child Left Behind Act .

George W Bush
