I’ve heard this about David before, and honestly it might be true, but I don’t believe it. It’s very easy to make people look alike by showing side by side photos taken at the same angle if there is a basic similarity, which there is - they’re both black and neither is fat.

But, to me, Obama (the Kenyan) just doesn’t look like most American blacks, who are part white and part West African. He does remind me of some East Africans I’ve seen. Some of the photos of Obama Sr look like Obama Jr, despite Sr being much blacker. Obama’s white features do tend to place him further genetically from a true African than from an Afro-American and that may be one reason some think he resembles Davis more than Obama Sr.

I saw a picture of Obama’s (white) grandfather, Dunham. He looks so much like his grandfather that it’s stunning; their faces are virtually identical, other than the fact that Barry appears to have a tan.

My only question, actually, is about that tan: children of an African as dark as the supposed Obama Sr. and a white are usually, from what I have seen, darker than the One and have more Negroid features. Davis, on the other hand, was himself fairly light-skinned and Obama could more plausibly be his child than Obama Sr’s. In any case, the person he really looks like is his his Marxist grandfather Dunham.
