Oh, yes! He definitely has that presence! There is an aura surrounding him. An emanation. He's oozing out charisma and he knows.
This one's quite amazing! - http://images.quickblogcast.com/42427-38783/Barack_Obama_art.gif

...and that, imo, is a problem. Hollywood is make believe and celebrity/movie star groupies are all too often lapping up the superficial glitter of a person and never understand the substance.
Plus, charisma is both a blessing and a potential diabolical tool. Remember, some of the most horrible depots and evil women and men in history had great charisma, luring the unknowing (or more likely the unwilling to know) into their power grip.
Regarding the well circuluated "art" of Obama's image in red and blue, I think it looks more like a Chez Guevara poster or other revolutionary leader than anything Americana.

You are absolutely right. But the groupies that never understand the substance, is okay in this case, because I think this time, the president has enough substance himself to make up for the lack of those who look up to him.... if that makes sense.. :-\

not those posters; rather the one being removed off the wall in the photo from post #194
