Is the president losing weight? Critics claim stress of leading the country has left Obama frail
Daily Mail UK ^ | April 11, 2012

Already engaged in a strenuous re-election battle, spiking gas prices and a fragile economy appear to be taking a toll on Barack Obama.

Obama, 50, was pictured at a campaign event in Florida today looking a little worse for wear, looking extremely tired and frail, his shoulders narrower than usual.

The photo was splashed atop the Drudge Report website with the headline: SHOCK PHOTOS: Obama, Thin And Wasting Away’.

Much like Adele, Jessica Simpson and Miley Cyrus, weight has been a key issue for Obama in the eyes of the media since he became the Democratic presidential nominee in 2008.

Some conservative opponents jokingly asked if the then-Illinois senator was too skinny to be president.

I remember watching a lib talk show—I think it was Chrissy Mathews—during the 2008 primaries. They were discussing Obama’s fitness for the presidency. One of the panelists commented that the only thing that would hold Obama back from being able to handle the rigors of the office was his health and stamina. The others just stared at him and then went on to something else....I think they all knew even then that there was something in his background.

“..maybe a little blow” - Obama’s(?) book

He also dies his hair and gel-glues it forward on his forehead -

Cannot even have one loose hair fall and be tested for his obvious drug use......

THE MEDIA should be asking if he would be fit enough for another term, and then demand better medical documents, more ‘thorough’ and transparent medical documents.

Wha, he gave us a one-page report from his doctor the last time around..

ME, I’m ‘worried’ he might not have the stamina for another term. /s
