Azərbaycanlı "Barak Obama"

31 yaşlı rəssam RİA-ya verdiyi açıqlamasında deyir ki, Obama prezident seçiləndən “günüm qara” olub. "Hara gedirəmsə, hamı mənə Obama deyə müraciət edir. Artıq az qala öz adımı da unuduram.

Kim görürsə, Amerika prezidentinə bənzərliyimdən istifadə edib, gah şəkillərii çəkirlər, gah da mənimlə şəkil çəkdirmək istəirlər”, - deyə Asif Mustafayev bildirib.

4. He has close-cropped hair and big ears.
I am still amazed at how people around the world are reacting to Obama's election. It seems people will do anything to be associated with him.

I'm hoping it means they no longer hate America like they did when Dumbass was president.

11. Besides numerous other small details that would make him a look-alike,
he also lacks a bright white, open smile.... something necessary to be an Obama look-alike.
