What You Don’t Know About Obama

The Republican campaign spent six months trying to work up a sense of fear about “what we don’t know about Obama.” Well, here now is a list of 50 facts you may not have known about Obama. As someone just going back and (re) computerizing his comic book collection, I liked that the number one fact was:

He collects Spider-Man and Conan the Barbarian comics

Also for geekish correctness:

He has read every Harry Potter book

That puts him up on me, I haven’t read any. I did buy some of the new Conan series at Xcon last week though. You go, president-elect fanboy! We’re all nerds on this bus.

      And this is cool stuff. From the linked piece:

      While on the campaign trail he refused to watch CNN and had sports channels on instead

      I’m not an Obama fan by a long shot, but non-CNN watchers have an in already.
