Obama Proud of our Way of Life?

If Obama loves this country and our way of life so much, how come he has not worn a flag pin like every other candidate. Why when the National Anthem is played does he turn away from our flag with his hands in front of him and not with his hand over his heart, like every proud to be an American would do and have done for ever.

If this man hopes to be President, he is not showing his love of this country. And only once have we heard Michele Obama say she was proud to be an American. Seems to me all he wants to do is CHANGE our way of life and in my opinion not for the better.
