It's already in the works, scripts are being written, etc.. Who should play Obama? Will Smith? Denzel? What about the rest of the cast? They MUST pick Tina Fey to play Palin, just one more time.

chic from Malcolm in the middle, or chic from Home Improvement should play Palin.
Obama... I guess Will Smith, if he loses 30 lbs, but Smith doesnt have that serious face to do Obama. Denzel is a safe choice

I need to give this some serious comedic thought.

You guys aren't thinking big enough. They should get this guy to play Obama:
Obama's already Vulcan-like anyway. It's a perfect fit.

Not to mention he's already used to wearing prosthetic ears.

Definitely not Denzel Washington. He's already had a biopic role of a lifetime with Malcolm X. Definitely not Will Smith. He's way too muscular plus he's already the number one movie star in the world. Definitely not Forrest Whitaker. He's way too overweight and goofy looking. Definitely not Wesley Snipes. He's too dark-skinned to pull off a bi-racial character. Besides, given his legal tax problems he may not be "available" anyway. Sam Jackson? Uh ... no. lol
Tim Russ could pull off the look. His voice just isn't deep and resonant enough to play Obama. Maybe with a vocal coach he could pull it off though.

I think we should wait maybe 15 years and let the kid from "Everybody Hates Chris" grow into the role.

Jaleel White (Steve Erkel) would be perfect for barry.

A few other options. All excellent actors:
Hill Harper (after losing the goatee of course)
Harry Lennix (he also has the voice to pull it off too)
Chiwetel Ejiofor (just an all around great actor)

Philip Seymour Hoffman could pull it off.

/watches as the humour inherent in said tax problems flies over OAW's head

It makes no sense for black actors to play a half-black man, but Robert Downey Jr plays a half-black man quite well.

Excellent choice to play the first POTUS of mixed ethnicity.
C Thomas Howell would also be good choice

Comrades, whoever plays Dear Leader must be filmed and directed correctly! This is more important than casting.
1. Camera angle must be low to show Dear Leader above us
2. Actor must be lit from behind to show The Chosen One is bathed in Holy Light
3. Actor must stare upwards or towards the horizon to show how deep and sanctimonious the visions of Our Beloved Leader are
4. Actor must speak in resounded deep voice that can shake the halls and bedrooms across the world. He must be the embodiment of power and charisma. He must fill soft-minded people with fright!
5. He must not pronounce words wrongly as the human predecessor Bush. Dear Leader is not capable of making human mistakes!
6. Children must sing to him for Change in one voice. The Elected By Heaven will look down upon the children with loving gaze and they will see him as their Benevolent Big Brother
There is an Oscar in this for sure!
