Even then, he was cool.
A series of photos newly discovered by Time magazine were taken three decades ago and capture 20-year-old college student Barack "Barry" Obama suavely striking a pose in a leather jacket and dragging on a cigarette.
Taken during a 1980 photo shoot by Occidental College pal Lisa Jack, the snapshots show that the freshman was already showing off the quiet confidence of a future president.
"He was very charismatic even then," Jack recalled of the brief encounter at her off-campus Los Angeles apartment.
"He was really cute. What else does a 20-year-old girl remember?" she told Time, which published the rare shots in its year-end issue that names the president-elect 2008's Person of the Year. "He was a little nervous," she said. "You can see he's just posing, initially, and as the shoot goes on, he starts to come out."

Looks like a joint to me.
And he started to “come out”?
He’s obviously a psychopathic narcissist.
Wrong. Since most of 0bama’s life is hidden, erased, sealed or a myth he made up, the more real snippets that are publicized for all the world to see - the better.
He looks like a punk.
Looks like a stoned pimp from the Bahamas.
There is nothing anyone can say or do that will change the minds of the majority of idiots who voted for him. They are enthralled, mesmerized, in love with his image - fake or not. Whatever is posted on FR - photos, research, timelines, exposes of corruption, lies and fraud - will make absolutely no difference whatever.
The only thing that may change any of their minds would have to be so extreme that it would entail 0bama being dragged off in handcuffs or a strait jacket. Both of which scenarios would be my happy day, btw.
People who are dedicated to being stupid leftists are unchangeable, 99% of the time. They are so heavily invested in the fraudlent world view that nothing short of incredible tragedy or a conversion of some sort will help them.
I could really care less what he looked like and the way he acted when he was twenty years old.
There isn't a person on this site over the age of forty who can't think a time when they were a little full of themselves at twenty and have the pictures to prove it.
What concerns me a WHOLE lot more is what he is today and what socialist/Marxist road he is going to lead us down.
He is a punk.
Threads like this remind me of a group of 15 year old girls at a slumber party talking about a classmate.
Hmmm - YOU’RE here, too...right? ;-)
HA!
Newly discovered my ass.
