Barack Obama: I’m Getting Old


Stress is prematurely aging Barack Obama (But he still looks younger than Dorian Gray Lindsay Lohan)

During a speech to potential campaign donors, U.S. President, Barack Obama, let the audience in on a little secret - he's aging. Obama stated, “I don’t look that young anymore. I’m grayer, I have bags under my eyes...some of the excitement of something entirely new is not going to be there, and I’ve got some dents and dings in the fender."

Some say you are only as old as you feel. However, I metaphorically say, you're only as old as you look (and what your birth certificate says). You really thought I wouldn't slip a birth certificate joke into an article about Obama. You don't know me very well, do you.

Seriously, Obama can go the route some have in dying his gray hairs, getting Botox, fillers and plastic surgery, but at the end of the day, most people do not take politicians seriously if it is obvious they've had cosmetic work done. Discretion is key.
