So it wasn’t Obama per se, but our ambassador to Indonesia who probably moved the date, perhaps in consultation with State.
And there is likely precedent for such a move. Besides, it doesn’t prevent embassy staff from celebrating July 4th in house. A June celebration would permit Muslim guests to partake of refreshments, etc. You know, for diplomatic reasons and all.
