"...On the down side, how many people raked obama over the coals for not putting his hand over his heart?"

Nothing personal, but those people who raked him over the coals were not running for the Presidency of the United States and the ostensible position of Leader of The Free World. That is a pretty clear difference. And you can bet those who did rake him over the coals likely knew the correct protocols.

I agree, that is pretty much what I am referring to. Notice that the older people in the video pretty much had their hand over their heart, the younger people pretty much did not. I was taught at school from the first grade on (they didn’t have kindergarten back then) to stop what you were doing, face the flag and place your hand over your heart during the National Anthem and the Pledge of Allegiance. When, and why did that stop?
