[QUOTE="TrainTrac, post: 821561, member: 55399"] There's absolutely no excuse for this. He's been in the public eye and political office long enough now that he should be aware and also observe the proper protocol. I won't begin to speculate on his thoughts and say that this was a deliberate act intended to "disrespect" America. It could've been just a brain-fart. But, deliberate act or brain-fart, it's still inexcusable when he's in the public eye, running for President, and is at a public function with his fellow Democrat contenders who are observing protocol. If nothing else, he should've noticed them doing so, along with likely the majority of the audience, and though "Gee, if everyone else is placing their hand on their heart, guess I should too." Even if he didn't truly mean it, he should do it for the sake of appearance, so as to not stir up controversy like this and add more fuel to the fire for his opponents. You'd think that someone who was supposed to be such a brilliant, Harvard-educated intellect and a great leader would think of this.:blink: [/QUOTE]
