Do US Presidents use body doubles?

To the best of my knowledge there has never been any body doubles used for the President of the United States other than the movie "Dave."

The Secret Service frequently uses decoys of vehicles and aircraft while transporting the President. When the President is traveling on Marine One there is often one or more decoys of the helicopter which, of course, look exactly the same as one another, and once they are in the air, they leapfrog each other like an aerial shell game to confuse any potential assailants on the ground. But there's never been any credible rumors of Presidents using body doubles like Uday Hussein once did.
