Stress.

When you know how close we come to launching nuclear missiles because of flocks of birds and breakdowns in communications and 98 cent circuits, you get rather a lot of stress.

Stress pure and simple. Look at how Lincoln aged during the Civil War.

Read soemthign fascinating about that the other day suggesting some of his portraits weren't accurate. One in particular wasn't even him but another guy's body with his head superimposed in an early version of photoshopping.

I had a. TS SC3 Security Clearance while in the Military. Roughly 1/3 of the information the president gets on a daily basis.

My hair didn't turn gray.......it fell out. So I know what the bastard in the WH goes through.

obama seems to enjoy his dictatorship. I think Michelle is responsible for the hair color.

 

[Muhammed]

Actually, I think Clinton used to change his hair color more often than my little sister and my twin daughters combined.

Stress, lack of sleep and age.

In Obozo's case his handlers probably told him to stop dying it... Trying to make the public feel sorry for him.

 

[Kosh]

In modern times it is because they can no longer afford to the hair coloring?

Reagan took the shoe polish with him when he left.
