I used to have a Panama hat, which was the style at the time.

 
PhiloeBedoe [TotalFark] 2008-12-18 09:27:30 AM  
All he needs to set off that cool hat is an "I'm A Pepper" T-shirt and some rainbow Mork from Ork suspenders.

Me too. Looks like a pretty cool cat, the kind of guy I'd have probably had a beer with.

He's gonna be the coolest President ever. When you go to other countries you will finally be able to say you are proud to be from the USA, instead of being ashamed to say it after Bush has pissed off the whole world.

 
Tom_Slick [TotalFark] 2008-12-18 10:11:08 AM  
But where are the parachute pants, or the Micheal Jackson thriller outfit? You know he had one or the other. On the plus side, being black, he skipped the whole mullet fad.

The people who head cabinet posts only run them. They aren't the ones who actual figure things out.

That's like thinking Steve Jobs programs code for apple. Heads of cabinet need to know how to get things through congress primarily and build support, not being experts about the subject.

Can you not be "cool" and also get stuff done? Chill man. Have a smoke.

Obama smoked? That's it. I'm voting for McCain now.

Wait for the candidate who was in college in the early 90's flannel for the white dudes, kid and play hair for the black dudes.

Well, shiat - he'd be 276 years old. That's older than McCain.

Even worse Abraham Lincoln. People should read his inauguration speech. The people who think he was some kind of anti-slavery, anti-racist guy is hilarious.

Not saying he was a horrible president, but people have too much of a black or white view of historical figures.

Well for the 80's he probably looks as good as possible.

Lucky he wasn't a white guy or they would have the mullety feathered hair.

 
Bunny Deville 2008-12-18 11:16:27 AM  
Erm, I hate to tell you all, but that is NOT a tobacco cigarette he's smoking there.

Anyone want to 'shop a joint into that first picture?

After finding the cache in a blue binder in the basement, she stored it in a safety-deposit box until after the election to make sure they wouldn't fall into the wrong hands and be used for political purposes.

On another note, that photographer wasn't half bad.

The lighting in the first one makes his face look like a burn victim.

The other shots are really good.
