Its foolish cause they look like middle schoolers and disgraceful for their choice of timing and location.

They all look like jackasses, the time and place for that crap is later after the ceremony. But in the eyes of an Obozo cheerleader anytime and place is the right time and place.

What would have been proper etiquette for this type of event? And I'm talking about for anyone, not just world leaders, since it wasn't an event where only world leaders attended.

Were there any other world leaders or heads of state doing the same?
Or were they being professional like leaders of a country should be?

I'm not sure who else was taking pictures. There were lots of pictures taken during the event. Was there a specific way you believe all should have behaved?

I would think if others leaders did the same thing it would be reported. Like you said there were lots of pictures taken.
I would want the leader of my country to act like a professional.

TJ, what does a professional act like during this type of event? Are there guidelines? Are there certain things normal people are allowed to do, but professionals aren't? Give us the specifics, please.

If you look at the railing in the foreground and how blurry it is you can tell the pic was taken from a distance with a zoom lense.

According to this, it was taken at the Mandela memorial: http://cnews.canoe.ca/CNEWS/Canada/2013/12/10/21327766.html

So, it looks like other leaders were doing the same thing. As you can see from the link, there were other similar pictures taken as well.

Reading your other posts it doesn't matter what I tell you how I think my president should have acted. So I won't waste my time.

I'm curious about the guidelines you have for the President. And I'm also wondering if you have as much contempt for the Prime Ministers in the picture, as you have for the President?

Before the ceremony started. And taken by others not themselves, making a gofey face.

a photo is a photo, whether I Take it myself or let someone take it

and joy is joy, whether I express it in front of a camera or not


my opinion is it was not unprofessional for cameras to be used during this event, nor for people to express joy

and certainly not for people to express joy in front of a camera,,
