Stars & Stripes, red, white & blue... people have died for that symbolism of a free America. Coming home from WWII, or rising up from the ashes at Ground Zero, "our flag was still there". For a Presidential Candidate to not stand with his hand over his heart, he's (to me) spitting in the faces of all those who've had a family member come home with <I>the symbolism</I> of the very same flag draped over their coffin.

It all boils down to character, the character of a Leader. Leaders is what this country is seriously lacking. I agree Fedup…

Conduct during playing The Star-Spangled Banner and §172. Pledge of allegiance to the flag; manner of delivery. Whereas both state the right hand is to be over your heart.
