Just under the Lincoln Memorial at the bottom of the bushes.

CorrectionThat's the right location but there's nothing sacred about "172". It's a plate or sequence number used to identify where the bill was in the printing press. All bills have them - take a look at other 5s and you'll see many other plate numbers, not just 172.

What is Obama's stance on the American flag?

Yes. The flap over Obama not pledging to the flag came from a photo of him at an event where he did not hold his hand over his heart during the singing of the National Anthem while others in the photo were doing so.Protocol calls for placing our hand over our hearts during the Pledge of Allegiance - but not during the Anthem, even though many people do.AnswerThe above answer is not entirely correct. In accordance with the United States Code, Title 36, Chapter 10 as outlined in the following sections 170, 171 and 172:§170. National anthem; Star-Spangled BannerThe composition consisting of the words and music known as The Star-Spangled Banner is designated the national anthem of the United States of America. §171. Conduct during playingDuring rendition of the national anthem when the flag is displayed, all present except those in uniform should stand at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart. Men not in uniform should remove their headdress with their right hand and hold it at the left shoulder, the hand being over the heart. Persons in uniform should render the military salute at the first note of the anthem and retain this position until the last note. When the flag is not displayed, those present should face toward the music and act in the same manner they would if the flag were displayed there.§172. Pledge of allegiance to the flag; manner of deliveryThe Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag, 'I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America, and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.', should be rendered by standing at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart. When not in uniform men should remove their headdress with their right hand and hold it at the left shoulder, the hand being over the heart. Persons in uniform should remain silent, face the flag, and render the military salute.Concerning the Lapel Pin and the manner of display, refer to section 175, sub-paragraph (j):§176. Respect for flag(j) No part of the flag should ever be used as a costume or athletic uniform. However, a flag patch may be affixed to the uniform of military personnel, firemen, policemen, and members of patriotic organizations. The flag represents a living country and is itself considered a living thing. Therefore, the lapel flag pin being a replica, should be worn on the left lapel near the heart. AnswerThe second answer is correct - civilians are supposed to face the flag, and place their hand over their heart, and remove any headgear during the playing of the National Anthem. Also note that the above Code is not binding law, but rather a suggestion for proper treatment. There is no requirement to follow it, except a respect for tradition.The photo documents a gaff by then-Senator Obama; he acknowledged the error later on. While definitely a breach of the protocol of respect, I would certainly not consider it meaningful, considering it was a single occurrence and given that he attended several hundred such gatherings during his campaign for the Presidency, screwing up once shows no real issue.

Where in the bushes under the Lincoln Memorial on a five dollar bill is the number 172?

The 172, 173 or 175 as some people claim it to be can be found on the bottom left. At the bottom it say FIVE DOLLARS, look just above the F. the 2 in 172 is just above the green triangle in the F that separates the two horizontal lines in an F. The 7 is just left of that and in my opinion is the easiest to see. It is a mere optical illusion where your mind is associating the shape of the leaves with familiar shapes. The 172 does not mean anything, It is not a conspiracy, and in fact it does not exist, except in your mind trying to find order in chaos.
