You know, if I were any more cynical than I already am, I would suspect that this shot, taken by pool photographer Frank Robichon, was purposefully framed in such a way as to suggest that Barack Obama's Teleprompter overshadows the Man Himself.
But, knowing the press as well as I do, I must admit that I have my doubts.

I look forward to hearing your answers in the most excellent Comments section below.
