I so agree. Why do we black folks or multi-ethnic folks always have to look like some other black folk? The gorgeous Mr. Sunjata does not resemble the President at all. President Obama is handsome. And Will Smith doesn't resemble the President either. He also doesn't resemble Muhammad Ali, even in Ali's younger days, but he still portrayed him. Now tennis player Jo Wilfried Tsonga does resemble a young Muhammad Ali, but I digress.

Jeeze, I can see people saying no but not the strong disagreement. I see Obama in this guy everytime I see him. I think he talks like him too. It's not a 100% resemblence but it was the whole reason I came to his imdb page haha.

He looks nothing like obama. Daniel is extremely good looking while "O"verrated is not. Will Smith with his jug ears looks more like obama but even Will Smith is better looking (but nowhere near as handsome as Daniel).

They always cast people in biopics who look nothing like the person they're playing and are way hotter than the person they're playing ever was in real life. So I don't see why Daniel couldn't play Barack. The only recent biopic casting I've seen where the person really resembles the one they're portraying is Hilary Swank in the upcoming Amelia Earheart movie. And that's no compliment to poor Amelia . . .

i saw him in "special victims unit" and would not agree to you.
but last night i saw him in "lie to me" and when he appeared i thought something like: "wow - whats that? impossibleobama acting! he would be the perfect actor for a film about obama ".
in some scenes he looked like your president, in other scenes i knew that i saw him before, but couldnt remember, where. (therefore im here: i wanted to know)

Before I ever looked at this board I always used to tell people whenever he popped up in a movie that he reminded me of Obama.
Now, honestly he is a much more attractive person than Obama and that is just obvious to anyone who can see, but there is something about the way he purses his lips and the facial expressions he makes that remind me of Obama.
