So would Russ be the perfect Obama? When you think of black Presidents on tv a lot of people think of David Palmer in 24 or Morgan Freeman Deep Impact maybe even the comical big Wrestling dude Tom Lister Jr. But all these guys were Pre Obama.
If you look back at movies, you will find actors who looked like a Bush or looked like a Clinton, Reagan or a JFK. Directors seem to be more concerned with the look of these actors.

Do you argee with the look alike trend?

In a modern movie is it better to have a look alike who can act rather than an Oscar nominated actor who can act a little better? and do you think Russ would be the perfect President?
 
Tim Russ' hairline freaks me out. Do something about that and yeah, he looks Presidential.

Good lord. No wonder we ended up with W for 8 years. Maybe our race SHOULD destroy itself to protect the rest of the galaxy.
 
Scott Lawrence would make a better Obama, closer in the looks department. He played Garon in The Void.

Tuvok for President of the Federation!

Mr. Tuvok, how would you like to be president?
I don't know ... whats it pay
There's no money anymore
DAMN

I was watching one of his episodes of iCarly the other day (he's got a recurring gig as Principal Franklin) and I thought he wouldn't make a bad Obama if they ever did a movie. Maybe not today, but if this was back in the days of Voyager I'd say definitely. Hairlines and other issues can be fixed with makeup, and it could be said Obama has more than a little Tuvok in him already (see picture above!).

Does anyone have a fairly recent pic of Tim Russ? I did catch a glimpse of him on "Hannah Montana" as a doctor one time. He looked pretty dern good to me! But we all age and gain weight. :) It's part of life!
