I wonder who started this tradition of dressing them in “native” costumes? EVERY TIME I see it, I am amazed that they do consent to do it. I mean, they are the leaders of the world being put in odd looking clothing. Why doesn’t someone give them an outfit they can use, like a tuxedo by Armani?

A strange tradition.... strange.
