Political leaders are meant to act as figureheads, idols, and iconic commanders that represent the strength and virtue of our nation. We trust these men and women to make critical decisions that affect our daily lives and the lives of people around the world. As such, politicians are meant to be held to a much higher standard than the common man.
But unfortunately for these politicians, the internet now exists. These 40 photos take this illusion of integrity and grace that these leaders have established over the years, and shatter it in one quick snapshot. Here are some of the best perfectly timed photos of politicians:
1. “Hillary, my eyes are up here!”
2016 Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton isn’t looking at Christina Aguilera’s eyes.
2. Joe Biden gets cozy at a diner
Does Vice President Joe Biden frequent Cruisers Diner? Because he looks pretty comfy and familiar with both the restaurant and some of the restaurant patrons. Sometimes we like to see that our politicians are just average Joe’s (get it?) that like diners, burgers, and fries, just like us. The woman seems to be happy where she’s sitting but the biker guys don’t seem so thrilled about it.
3. Vladimir Putin and topless girl
A topless protester got Vladimir Putin excited while he was visiting with German Chancellor Angela Merkel in Germany.
4. George W. Bush and Liberty

5. Castro says no to Obama hug
U.S. President Barack Obama and Cuban President Raul Castro. Awkward! Castro deflects an embrace by Barack Obama.
6. Abdul-Latif bin Rashid Al Zayani leaves Obama hanging

7. Babies do not like Bush
Former U.S. President George W. Bush tries to give back a baby after it starts crying during an outdoor dinner with German Chancellor Angela Merkel in Trinwillershagen.
8. Danish Prime Minister not so graceful
Danish Prime Minister, Helle Thorning-Schmidt, takes a tumble down the steps of Elysee Palace.
9. Helle Thorning-Schmidt & President Obama
Selfies are the kind of thing you can enjoy anywhere, even during Nelson Mandela's funeral.
10. Bill Clinton and Barack Obama
Former President Bill Clinton and Baraka Obama playing golf together. From the look on Bill's face, the two may be nagging about their wives.
