An American citizen does not bow to any foreign leader; the American Flag does not dip to any foreign power.
In response, no one touches the Queen of England. Have you never seen when Prince Charles was a child, and bowed to his mother, as she disembarked from a plane? It's just not done. The bob of the head that the Obamas gave to the Queen were, IMHO, appropriate and not over the top.
In all honesty, I have serious doubts about the current Protocol Office. I think Big Bird has a better idea of protocol than they do.
The only other option is that the Protocol Office's advice is being steadily ignored. If that's the case, maybe we should save some money and fire them all.
