Barack Obama says the only fashion choice he makes every day is red tie or blue tie. Every choice comes with decision fatigue, and he's got a lot to make.

I'm disappointed that the President of the United States--supposedly a pretty smart feller--doesn't just flip a coin for that. He could even keep four more colors in the closet if he would just roll a d6!~

I suspect that he makes a lot more fashion decisions than that implicitly, by delegating them to an employee. That's not exactly the same as having perfect indifference to all the various clothing options in your wardrobe.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was a PR calculation made weeks in advance.
