40 Photos Political Leaders Don’t Want You To See

40. "Hillary, My Eyes Are Up Here!"

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:

38. "Mom, Why Is He Touching Me?"

While walking outside the Buckingham Palace in London, a gust of wind attacks again. It nearly takes off Britain's Queen Elizabeth II’s hat, while First Lady Michelle Obama struggles to keep herself together. Obama braves the wind like a champ.

35. Vladimir Putin Gives the Thumbs Up To Topless Protesters

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.

Several women rush President Vladimir Putin at a topless protesting event. The women are advocating against his anti-gay laws, and he is advocating for what he sees.
