Barack Obama is......

Barack Obama contributed an article to The Times today, the online version of which can be veiwed here. I particularly like the fact that at the end of the article, the paper kindly points out to readers that 'Barack Obama is President of the U.S'. I'm just wondering how many people who read The Times do not have any idea who Barack Obama is? Someone who reads The Times and does not know who he is, would quite possibly be the most unique imbecile in the country. Or smashed off their tits on acid.
