Obama: Cool For School
December 17, 2008 Posted in News-ish
If you needed any more proof that Barack Obama is cooler than you, the evidence has just arrived. From 1979 – 1981 President elect Barack Obama was a student at Occidental College, a small liberal arts school in Los Angeles.
While not very much is know about the two years he spend at Occidental, a series of photos shot in 1980 by an aspiring photographer named Lisa Jack have been released on Time.com in honor of Obama being named Time’s “Person of the Year.”
The series of 12 black-and-white photos (below) show the 19 year-old freshman posing in various positions, being “charismatic” as Jack describes. And no matter your political affiliation, you have to admit that Obama looks cooler than anyone you know.
