   Okay- I have this from Anonymous sources in the White House and Area 51 - All the World Leaders in fact are not on that G20 Summit, but are in fact on holiday on Epsilon Eridani - 5 at the invitation of the Balonians and the all mighty Conspiratorians. They were brought there by the U.F.O.-Yellowcab-service of the Greys.....

   Frankly, if I had to stand there and pose for a load of visiting dignitaries, I'd have a fixed smile and a glazed look.

   Do you think he practiced in the mirror?

   That's common for folks in his field (entertainment/charisma marketing), you see it with other similar folks like this http://tr.im/zNuK

   Their handlers make sure they know how to smile. Soros is getting his money's worth!

   That would be funny if all these world leaders were getting their picture taken next to a cardboard cutout.

   I know regular people that have the same smile in every picture. Just look at facebook. They figure out what works and do it.

   At least this will shut the idiot birthers up. He was clearly created in a lab.

   Seriously, the man has found a smile that works and has it down to perfection. I fail to see what the surprise is here.

   Since everybody is posting this, I finally watched it. Duh! The tie never changes. Shopped!

   The position of his hands are always the same, too...

    hasn't anyone seen a similar version of this, but with paris hilton? it's even more photographs and she's making the exact same face.

    also it's not photoshopped...these are pictures from the same day. duh.

    @RightState & Eggs - Paris Hilton was acknowledged and linked to in the post ...

    It seems far too consistent to be natural.

    I'm convinced that it is probably a benign photoshop job, in order to give each guest a nice photo with the President.

    No.

    We think those folks get botox and plastic surgery.
    But in fact they get the newest nano-bots injected that by remote control get signal X for Photogenic Smile Nr. 02 and they pull at eaxactly the correct muscles and tissue for that particular smile.

    But that is still all very Hush-Hush Higly Classyfied Red Tape and all that. So we're not supposed to know that...

    All of these photos were probably taken within a few hours. That smile is frozen, but other times he has genuine, wide, spontaneous smiles. His beautiful smile one thing that makes him appealing to people.

    Even if it his actual smile, it looks uncomfortable. He needs to show his sincere smile more.

    Yeah, it's real. I know people in power who obsess over the photo op smile. They are actually being thoughtful. They want whoever they are being photographed with to have a good shot of themselves, not some clumsy attempt at reality, which might end up being stupid-looking.

    I think his choice of smile is pretty good.

    In Canada we've had a robot running our country longer then you have. Our's also sports a titanium hair piece which is impenetrable to gun fire to protect his CPU.

    I'm surprised by how tiny so many world leaders look next to Obama.

    this can be done with anybody, president or not, with multiple pictures of the same day

    It still could be a wax figure- Animatronics are amazing these days...!

    Obviously he's one of the best fakers in the world. Never trust a politician with a perfect smile.

    @ Woogie: "He was clearly created in a lab."

    But was the lab located in the US or Indonesia?

    This is almost as much fun as watching him deliver a speech. Tennis match anyone?

    Well at least according to the Italian Prime Minister Berlusconi, the colour of the President of the United States is not white because he and his wife probably went sunbathing....
