Since Barack Obama came into the political picture, he has reminded me of somebody I looked up to when I was a kid. For a while, I thought he was a combination of Martin Luther King and Bobby Kennedy, both sadly and momentously taken away when I eight. But, after more reflection and memory digging, I’ve finally figured out who he really reminds me of. He is Spock and Shaft combined:
That’s illogical. Shut yo mouth.
Since posting this, I see several sites made the Spock comparison some time ago:

Those are good, but Spock alone does not attain the necessary coolness factor. Shaft’s tough chill completes it.
