Graceful Aging for Barack Obama?


Have you ever noticed how rapidly presidents age?

The way in which president's age has been talked about for years. Obviously, stress is the number one contributing factor for gray hairs and wrinkles and before and after photos are usually taken to  compare and contrast a president's aging process. The photo comparisons is what shows proof that being president definitely accelerates the aging factor.

I totally believe that being president is a stressful job, but throughout the history of this country all of our president's have been Caucasian. 

It is a known fact that Caucasians age faster than African Americans due to having less melanin in their skin and the fact that President Obama is America's first Black president, it'd be hard to compare him to previous presidents because there isn't any that look like him. So it'll be interesting to see how Obama's aging process plays out as I'm sure the media will keep a watchful eye.

I'm guesstimating that Obama won't age as fast as other president's in the past, due to the black side that gives him the melanin that Caucasians lack?

When Obama's presidency is over he would have indeed gained more gray hairs -- but gray hairs come with age. I believe after Obama's presidency he'll look a lot younger than president's from the past. 

As the saying goes, "Black don't crack!"
