He was tall and stunningly good looking, a guy who could appear pensive and serious one moment and then, with smoke from an unfiltered cigarette swirling around his face, morph into the hippest looking dude this side of James Dean.

Which is why budding photographer Lisa Jack knew the moment she saw Barack Obama walk into the campus snack shop at Los Angeles' Occidental College in 1980 that she had to get the freshman in front of a camera.

"I was doing portraits of fellow students, the cool people on campus," Jack, a slender, 49-year-old bundle of energy, recalled this week as she stood in a West Hollywood photo gallery surrounded by framed black-and-white photos of the president as a young man.

I went to seminary, and the geeks (now preachers) on campus were “hunkier” than this panty-waist.

He is NOT attractive in any sense of the word.

I guess they think if they say it enough people will believe it. If that’s good looking, they must have really ugly spouses and friends, that’s all I can say.
There is nothing good looking about him at all!!! Floppy ears, skinny, ugly slatty legs, bad skin, blue lips, kinky hair, big more on his nose, blue gummy smile, he’s nasty.

big more on his nose OOPS typo, that should be big mole on his nose

Odd how there isn't a single picture of him with a female until the shemale Michelle isn't it?
