Smith has staked his claim to play the role, even before Barack Obama has been inaugurated as president.
Speaking at the premiere of his new film Seven Pounds at the Empire, Leicester Square, in London, Smith laughed about reports that the US President-elect had indicated that he would like the actor to play him if his life story were ever to be made into a movie.
“If I am ordered by my commander in chief to star in a film about him, I will do my duty as an American," he said, beaming.
(snip)
Smith said the “world had changed forever” with the election of Barack Obama.
He said he would be an "eyewitness to history" when he attends the impending inauguration of US President-elect Barack Obama.

WOW, can't wait to see the plot line ... Little Barry's life history in Indonesia should be instructive.

The sycophantic routine is sickening.
But, there is at least a passing resemblence; and despite his politics Mr. Smith is an excellent actor.

Smith said the “world had changed forever” with the election of Barack Obama. Only a fool would think so.
Those who say NOW a black man can do anything were just holding themselves back. The potential was always there.
When we put a man on the moon AND safely brought him back, we HAD made history. Doing something that NO ONE had ever done before (nor that we will be likely to do again).
