Tell me. if this picture of Obama, allegedly taken, when he was a student at Columbia university, real?

This picture looks very unnatural. Look at his grandfather’s left arm. You can see the left arm at the shoulder positioned in such a way, as if he is holding the bench, but than you see the left hand, it appears to be in unnatural position, ergonomically not consistent with the shoulder and arm. Also, if you look the computer screen with the magnifying glass, it looks, like it was a picture of grandparents sitting together and Obama was inserted in it. Is there anyone, who is astute in photography, who can give me an expert opinion.

The two stone blocks behind his right arm look weirdly wrong:
1. Why are they different textures?
2. Why don’t they match those on the right of the picture, or the third one below them?
3. Where does that red horizontal streak come from? Since nothing reflects off stone, where does it come from.
Sure looks doctored to me.

I have experience with photo editing and I must agree with Dr. Orly in saying that this is really, really shoddy work. His grandfathers arm clearly is pointing downward, and the shadows on obama’s hands don’t match the rest of the scene either. Not only that, but I think I’ve seen that exact picture of obama somewhere else, and not with his grandparents either. I will write more when I am done examining it.

In Jack Cashill’s book “Deconstructing Obama” he says half of the images released by the campaign were photoshopped. You can contact him via email on his web page for more information on the topic.

I have seen two pictures…one with just his two grandparents sitting side-by-side in the same setting and then this concocted version of him between them; however, I can’t remember where I saw the two pictures. Just google “where are two pictures of Obama with his grandparents at Columbia Univ. and I’ll bet both will pop up. I’ll try…

Yes, it is found at http://www.newser.com by way of Jack Cashill. Google it. Just ask about two pictures of Obama and his grandparents at Columbia.

Why don’t you ask the person who took the “original” photo? Surely they would come forward and explain all? Oh, I forgot… NOBODY has ever come forward from Obama’s past except, Bill Ayers. Now there’s someone you can trust…

The main characteristic of Obama is the Dumbo ears. This standin has ears tight to the head typical of Blacks. Also obvious kinky black hair typical of Blacks while Asian Obama has straight hair typical of the Thais. The Thais typically have Dumbo ears.
No passthrough on the inherited characteristics. The sunglasses typically used to hide identities. Nobody is real in this photo. Three standins!

Of course it has been edited because the original included Karl Marx, Stalin, Che Guevara, Patrice Lumumba and aunt Ruth.

That’s not his grandfather’s hand on Obama’s shoulder, it’s a honey bun.

If he is at Columbia it would be 1981-1983. He is wearing a wedding ring but didn’t meet Michelle until 1989.
