There does appear to be /something/ going on to the right of the candidates. Richardson isn’t distracted, tho. And he appears to be “vocalizing” something.

The “unnamed” woman (Richardson’s wife, maybe?) really wants to see whatever that is.

Is it just me, or do all of these photos of the Democrats with “their hands over their hearts” seem off? Look at where their hands are at. Is that where they were taught as children their hearts were? Richardson looks like he’s patting his jacket to find a pair of reading glasses.

Body language experts (one of which I am not!) interpret this position as showing low self-esteem, weakness and passive/agressive protection (defensiveness).

He didn’t have to when he went to school in Indonesia... so why would he feel obligated now?

But, then again, he may be placing his hand over what he perceives to be the body-part most worth protecting

Or, where his patriotism is derived from?

Or, a subtle gesture of his contempt for the USA (crotch-grab).

“HOWEVER ... their demeanor is sloppy even by minor-league baseball game standards. One would think that Presidential Candidates would try to do better than that.”

We went to a college football game Saturday. I was teaching my 3 yr old how to behave during the anthem, and to place his hand over his heart. I looked around at the crowd. I would have to say less than 1/4 had their hands over their hearts-most people had their head down with their hands behind them. A good portion were not even paying attention, looking around or even talking. By the way, we were not sitting in a student section, most of these people were alumni and parents. It was strange.

I’ve known for awhile that Obama hates America. Why he’s running for President is beyond me.

Should be obvious.It is to continue the erosion of the Constitution in order to remake it in the flawed vision he holds.

"In fairness to Obama, is it possible the song hadn’t started yet?"

Or he genuinely forgot. Or the anthem just ended and he was the first to put his hand down. But I don't think I'm going to give him a pass.

He'll probably respond with 'I was mis-treated when I was a kid.' Or, 'What about the photographer? Why should he be immune from criticism?' Or, 'I had a terrible itch I had to attend to.'
