The entire negotiations are about people working together to solve very tough issues. Him parading along like the "leader" with a bunch of servants following along was a very poor way to reinforce the entire "working together" aspect. It was bound to cause exactly these types of petty distractions.

I'm sure that the state department sets it up that way, not Obama or the media. As the leader of the host country, Obama should lead the way. But really, it's Bush's fault.
