Well, why the hell not. He thinks he’s everybody else, from JFK, to FDR, to Jesus Christ Himself, so why not Spock?
President Barack Obama said in a report Sunday that he saw the new “Star Trek” film recently — and not just because it was last week’s top-grossing movie.
“Everybody was saying I was Spock,” said the US leader, known to have a wonkish command of the minutiae of policy — not unlike the dispassionate movie Vulcan to whom he has been compared.
Newsweek gushed however that Obama’s version of the character would be “Spock with global sex appeal.”
Yeah, his version of Spock would be the one with “global sex appeal”…right after he wrecked the entire Federation economy, gutted its military, and capitulated to the Borg.
I’ll say one thing, he certainly has the ears for it, that’s for sure (cue the Obama-Spock photoshops).


Ahhh, I can’t embed pictures here, but you obviously need this one to illustrate your article! :)
