I don’t understand Barack Obama’s motives. After all the controversy his bowing before foreign leaders has caused, he does it again. This time he bowed before an elementary school student during a photo op. I guess Obama thinks teaching children to appear subservient and weak to others is a good look?
Update:
President Obama bowed to President Hu Jintao in China at a town hall meeting. At the one minute mark, Hu bows his head slightly to Obama who reciprocates not once but three times ending with a deep bow.
