Based on the title, I thought this thread was about Obama.

Like in Boxing, Welter and Middle weights are seldom

No, the Obummer sucks way too much to be an “average” one of these.

I thought it looked too good. It's an artist's depiction.

“Colorized”

I’d say yes, but not “artificially”.
It maybe a combination of natural light in different
wave lengths blended together.

It would be as if you could see the entire spectrum of light.

Not certain HTRN.

Publication photos usually differ in quality and
color tone.

So we have a “Middle Ground”. Just as in the Bailouts.
Not quite Too Big To Fail, yet Not Too Small To Let Fail.

This Black Hole, requires TARP funding for further
analysis.
