Кривляющийся Медведев, 1986

On a lighter note, above is a picture of Dmitry Medvedev, taken in 1986, at which time he was approximately 21 years old. Dmitry Medvedev is currently the Prime Minister of Russia and has gone with a more conservative wardrobe and facial expressions since this photo was snapped.

Накурившийся Обама, 1980-е

In the somewhat controversial picture above, a young Barack Obama can be seen smoking either a cigarette or perhaps something a little more potent, while deep in thought about something. This image was captured during Obama’s time at college, so the photo was probably taken sometime during the later part of the 1980s.
