Whether Obama does it consciously or subconsciously, by intersecting his "O" and his "b" he forms the Greek symbol "phi".
"Since ancient times, this symbol has represented the golden ratio, the ideal proportion," said Dresbold...""

According to Michelle Dresbold’s bio:
“Handwriting expert Michelle Dresbold—the only civilian to be invited to the United States Secret Service's Advanced Document Examination training program—draws on her extensive experience helping law enforcement agencies around the country on cases involving kidnapping, arson, forgery, murder, embezzlement, and stalking to take us inside the mysterious world of crossed t’s and dotted i's.”
Sounds like she's familiar with Chicago style politicking.

The 0 is split vertically.
The O shaped B is nearly split horizontally...

Compare that 0 to another enigmatic person's signature:
