This is the Sarah Palin poster I referred to in my post #52
No. Obama’s signature doesn’t have the “cross”. Inside of the “O” there is just one line down. The “bama” starts inside of the “O”.
It could be that he is creating the “Phi”.
It could also be that when he was a young man he latched onto some sort of need to create a flair with his signature, and it stuck.
It is obvious that he is attached to the his initials because he named his dog “Bo”. I would have thought that for other obvious reasons he WOULDN’T have named the dog Bo.
The man is a narcissist and he needs to draw attention to himself at every opportunity.
And whenever he first started signing things where he knew people would want to say, “Look. Barack Obama signed this.”, he knew that for some people the effect of the signature that he had formed all of those years ago would be eye-catching. Everyone knows what his signature looks like.
For the life of me, I can’t remember what Bill Clinton’s signature looks like. But I suspect I’ll remember Obama’s signature, years from now.
