The list of DONTS for Presidents have increased. You DONT take a smiling selfie at a funeral.
As the Memorial proceedings of Madiba were going on, The Prez Obama interacted with World leaders as one is supposed to do. At some point during those interactions, the President whipped out his phone and took a "selfie" with the pretty Prime Minister of Denmark Helle Thorning Schmidt with Britain's Mr Cameron looking on. And the world (or the cyber world) erupted!
What followed was miles and miles of tweets, retweets, opinions. And more opinions on why is Michelle Obama looking so glum!
However what I feel is that - come on, the Prez is a person too - let him have his selfie! Madiba wouldnt have objected. And more to the point - it kept up with the spirit of celebrating Mandela's life!
