Can you tell what President Obama is trying to do in this picture??
Here are some choices:
1.) He is showing his warm fuzzy side by giving the Chief a big hug.
2.) He is trying to get a free room at one of the Chief's many casinos.
3.) He is squeezing him until he promises to vote for his re-election in 2012.
4.) He wants the beautiful headdress.
5.) They are doing an ancient tribal dance together.
5.) He is befriending him so that they can smoke a little peace pipe together later.
6.) He is apologizing for America's unfair portrayal of the Indian population in the early Western movies and tv shows.
GIVE UP?
In reality, our President is reaching around the headdress of Chief Joseph Medicine Crow to place a 2009 Presidential Medal of Freedom around his neck on Wednesday, August 12, during a ceremony in the East room at the White House.
The President seems to be enjoying it....but, the Chief? ....not so sure!! : )
