They are only PD if the photo is made by a person that works for the
government. If shot by a photographer of a news agency or a private
person copyright applies. If these photo's are licensed with CC-BY
3.0 they most likely aren't photos from a government source.<br>

These clipart have been sourced from non-pd (CC-BY 3.0) photos.
Yet I always understood that official government photos were not
copyrighted.<br>
<br>
A change in copyright direction? Or mistaken identity?<br>
<br>
Technically, OCAL shouldn't accept Obama's clipart based on these
images since they are not PD / CC0 compatible.<br>
