The perfect job for Obama:
It is essential to realize that, on average, actors spend about 80% of their working life ‘resting’ (i.e. not employed as an actor), so it is important to have other ways of being occupied and generating an income.

Actor : Job description
An actor communicates a character and/or situations to an audience through speech, body language and movement. This usually involves interpreting the work of a writer under the instruction and support of a director, although some work may require the actor to devise a character or improvise the reactions of a character to a situation.
Work varies enormously, from live stage performances of the classics and community theater to soap operas, radio work and film parts. An actor’s role may also involve education, training or therapy, as well as entertainment.
An acting career inevitably incorporates periods of unemployment, underemployment and alternative employment.
Typical work activities
Work activities vary from actor to actor and even for the same actor, depending on the contract. However, activities include varying combinations of the following:
- job seeking and networking;
- liaison with an agent;
- preparing for and attending auditions;
- learning lines and rehearsing;
- researching or undertaking activities to help prepare for a part;
- discussing interpretation and delivery with other members of the company and the director;
- performing for a live audience;
- performing in a studio or ‘on location’ for film, television, internet and radio broadcast;
- doing voice-overs for advertisements or recording audiobooks;
- managing the performance area, costumes and props;
- undertaking activities associated with touring, such as driving a van, ‘get-ins’ and ‘get-outs’ at theaters (i.e. setting up and dismantling the performance area);
- liaison with venue managers and accommodation providers;
- keeping records for company managers;
- working as a walk-on or extra for television or film.
Obama makes a perfect Actor-In Chief, because at his core, he a Natural Born Serial Liar, and Acting is Lying.
Obama is the best actor he lies, and uses facial expressions all day long. He knows he is lying and hides it well. He is just fake and we all know this. The lying part of his muslim upbringing being it is permitted for the sake of Islam.
