Check out this snapshot from Time of a young Barack Obama puffing away on a cigarette. In 1980, the future prez was at Occidental College in L.A. when aspiring photo Lisa Jack asked to snap his pic.
He agreed -- and the rest is presidential history!
Barack has said he is trying to quit smoking, and he won't smoke in the White House.

when you attack Obama check this out: “pigs with lip sticks” “wasilla hillbillies” “rednecks” “sarah a pistol packin’ mamma” “pregnant unwed daughter” “mom in law to be drug addict” “dope dealers” “joe sixpack” “elisabeth from the view” “sarah palins church burned downed” “joe the plumber” “doggone it” “you betcha” IT’S MORE LIKE A SLAPSTICK COMEDY!!!!!!!! the BACKWOODS BUNCH? heeeehawww it’s hootenanny time, bring out the banjos and the fiddles!!!!!!!
It’s not surprising at all that EXTRA would try to put a positve and “cool” spin on the fact that Oblahma smokes! It’s a dispicable, disgusting, revolting, nasty, gross habit! And there is absolutely NOTHING to be gained by smoking!
But, by all means, keep on puffing away Barack,.. smoke all ya want to. Smoke 10 packs a day!! It’s a tell tell that you obviously also do weed! Perhaps smoking is your best option at this time. People tend to smoke when they are nervous, stressed, or HIDING something?
I can not believe you guys have actually lowered yourselves to this capacity. Stop trying to find negative things to say about our new president and be glad we have someone thats going to be make a positive change in the right way in our country. Stop It, Just Stop It. You need to ashamed of yourselves.
Obesity and Heart Failure — Risk Factor or Mechanism?
Massie BM
…lay press, nearly 60 percent of the adult population of the United States is overweight or obese, with substantial resulting morbidity and mortality. 1 Since obesity increases the risk of the most frequent causes of heart failure, an association between these conditions is to be expected. from new england medical journal. “gluttony” to the comment below your are right to Ja
Hey sands… what do you do that would be a bad example for children? What do you fantasize about? How clean is your language? How about your eating habits? How about gluttony or materialism or perhaps gossiping? Please… don’t be so judgmental if you are not the perfect example for all to follow! To all, Obama is the president so lets all just find out how we can be the best citizens and support without judgment of our president.
There is nothing cool about smoking and
this photo is a bad example for teenagers.
He does not look cool. Talk to someone
who has fought a battle with lung cancer
after a life time of smoking and you will
have a perspective of the fear, pain, and
hardship smoking causes. Don’t encourage
this photo.
I am so glad they cleaned him up for the election!
He was cool then….He is Cool now…How he wants to lead us and garner our strength and re-energise our country now is the COOLEST EVER! GOD BLESS YOU and your FAMILY PRES. OBAMA—
What’s really sad is that superman’s wife, dana reeves died of lung cnacer, she said there were no smokers in her family and she didn’t smoke. A family member’s family died of lung cancer and she didn’t smoke. All her life she was into fitness and eating healthy foods. She told my family member before she died. i guess all the working out and healthy eating didn’t help me at all. That is sad and she never smoked, she was 63 yrs old. No smokers in her family either. I don’t understand why some people get lung cancer when they have never smoked. It is sad.
i don’t think smoking is good for your health , but hey we all do things that are bad for our health , and besides millions of people do it , so give the man a break he is human too.and he was young too. i love Barack and i wish him good luck in quitting.
Two wrongs dont make a right but back in the 1950’s Ronald Reagan was the pitch man for Chesterfield Cigarettes.
Wow. He smokes now and then. Millions of American smoke, to relieve stress, or just out of habit. We who smoke are not disgusting people. After hearing that news, it’s the first time I’ve actually felt that Obama was a real person. What the President does to relieve stress is none of our business, unless it’s perhaps, illegal. Heck, I’m sure he has a drink now and then too. Geez people, he’s not perfect.
That is what you call cool.
This isn’t news. Just how many pictures of YOU would you rather NOT have others see? Grow up! He’s not perfect either.
Good luck with quitting smoking. I know it’s hard.
I rolled him that fatty. As I remember correctly, it was some of the best primo ever!

Our new President will be a great example to many out there who have struggled with smoking. I’d rather a President who smokes any day than one who abuses alcohol like Bush.
The great thing about Obama is that he is such an average guy. So many Americans can relate to him on a personal level. No wonder he is so popular with the public with an approval rating topping 80%, the likes of which no other newly elected President has ever seen. The guy is just phenomenal. God bless America for making such an excellent choice.
