Remember when political pundits were complaining that Obama refused to wear the ubiquitous flag lapel pin common among politicians?
What was the big deal?
The Old School pin was a normal rectangle worn parallel to the ground.
Today, most pins are worn slightly skewed - almost replicating other symbols from other groups or societies.

Hey i guess he might have some reason for that, we don't have any idea why he refused...
Most are worn skewed to match the angle of the notch in a lapel.
He was forced into being bossed around or refusing by others asking a question with no real precedent... there was no prior rule to flag pins for candidates, his opposition just came out with why aren't you wearing one question in a sort of "have you stopped beating your wife?" sort of catch-22 tactic.
