Obama's skin color

Has anyone else noticed that it looks like Obama's skin color is noticeably darker now that the election is over?

I got my TIME magazine last week and he looked Black but yet in TIME magazines published prior to the election, Obama looked as White as me.

Do I need to go to my Optometrist or do other people notice this?

have you got any pictures that you can upload and do a side by side comparison..??

Because it would make him less of an inferior to the racists if his skin was lighter?

It's an interesting idea but a waste of time and brain function.

It was my observation that prior to the election he had a reddish glow as if he just got a tan from the beach or a salon.

Mixed race people usually can appear lighter depending on the lighting.

Most of the pictures of him are brushed. Many have faux-halos.
Many are staged. God knows if he's wearing makeup or not.
I'm sure many politicians do wear it for the cameras.

Who knows what he really looks like.

For that matter, who knows what any of them really look like without the adoring press (or the reverse of that - without the biased anti-___ press)
