I have already commented on the presidential debate and President Obama’s small flag pin. The contender, Mitt Romney, had a larger lapel pin. Well, the candidates for the number two position did the same thing. Vice President Biden wore a small American flag lapel pin, while Paul Ryan had the large one.
What’s up with this? I’m certainly not going to argue the issue of patriotism in relation to pin size, but was the choice part of the overall effort to steer public attention or opinion? Don’t think that every aspect of the candidates’ outfits is not over-thought down to the last detail. Somebody came up with the idea. I’d like to know why.
