Yes he does, and has been photographed saluting the flag on many occasions. But sadly, there are a number of urban myths and political lies on various websites that claim he does not; there are also photo-shopped (fake) pictures where it is claimed he disrespected the flag. None of this is accurate. Whether you like him or not, there is no credible evidence that he hates the flag, nor is there evidence that he refuses to salute it. 专科
That said, before he became president, Obama was accused of failing to observe "flag etiquette". He was photographed, accurately, by a Time magazine photographer, during a 2007 event in Indianola, Iowa, not holding his hand over his heart while the National Anthem was being played. His political opponents immediately attacked, saying that failing to display the proper hand-over-heart etiquette proved Obama was unpatriotic and unfit to hold the office of President. But it was pointed out by Obama's spokesperson that the incident was about the playing the National Anthem, not about saluting the flag. The spokesperson said sometimes Obama stands with hand on heart during the National Anthem, and sometimes he does not. A look at people at a baseball game will show that many do not place their hand on their heart during the anthem.
