Obama era il presidente più cool, la prova in 30 scatti



In otto anni di presidenza, Barack Obama è stato ritratto in migliaia di scatti ufficiali. E dobbiamo riconoscere che è diventato un maestro del cool nel corso degli anni. La prova in 30 scatti.

Pensieroso, divertito, commosso, atletico, paterno. Sono tanti i volti di Barack Obama raccontati dalle fotografie. In questi scatti viene mostrato il lato umano del presidente, catturandone spesso le emozioni. Abbiamo raccolto alcuni degli scatti più belli, dal saluto con il pugno a un addetto alle pulizie alle risate con Michelle e le figlie. Ogni immagine svela qualche dettaglio in più di un uomo che è rimasto anche altro rispetto alla sua autorità.
