Well, not quite. Barack Obama impersonator, comedian Reggie Brown who bears a striking resemblance to the 44th Commander in Chief of the United States has just received his Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu blue belt, awarded to him by Alberto Crane who founded Gracie Barra in Encino, California back in 2009.
The 35-year old Brown became well-known after his comedic performance at the Republican Leadership Conference in 2011, when he made various appearances as the President of the United States of America.
The video on page 2 shows Brown receiving his blue belt — the second adult ranking in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Blue belts are practitioners who are thought to have gained a wide breadth of technical knowledge of the martial art, as well as having hundreds of hours of mat experience.
