He is not the first US President to bow. He just happened to be the first filmed doing so. There is a political explanation for it but no need to go into that.

People should just ignore trivial symbolism

obama simply bowed to the saudi king because of the delicate and sour relationship with the moslems which have gone really bad. he did it to appease the moslems to say; AMERICA IS NOT YOUR ENEMY. and besides the saudi king stands between america and the terrorists.
