If Obama had security doubts about him, he should have requested that the relevant authorities suspend and revaluate his clearance.

Spot on pb, I've just watched the congressional hearing with ex DNI Clapper and ex NGA Yates.
Obama did hire him and he went through "Advanced" vetting, if he was sacked his security clearence should have been revoked. It didn't happen.
Trump (alledgedly) thought Obama was joking when he said "Don't employ Flynn".
Had his security clearence been withdrawn this fiasco would never have happened.
