It'd be nice to think that our Scottish Prime Minister would be seen in a kilt sometimes. As for SNP leader Alex Salmond, here are his thoughts on kilts:

Douglas Hyde the first President of Ireland was a keen Kilt wearer.

But the photos of Alex Salmond kilted are in New York, not Scotland! 
After the last election there were articles stating that President Obama should wear a kilt because of that side of his ancestry should he visit Scotland so we will have to keep a watch on that possibility!

Sporran too high!
Kilt too low on the waist!

I came across this humorous kilted tall tale in my search for a kilted president. I got a good laugh out of it:

The spirit of the Declaration of Arbroath (6 April 1320) abides today, defiantly resisting any tyranny that would disarm, disperse and despoil proud people of just morals, determined to keep the means of protecting their families and way of life close at hand.
