so a little bit more context on how this aired on finnish tv:
it's a part of a really popular skit/improv show in finland, and in every episode they do parodies of real life personalities or more well-known fictional characters (like darth vader for example). note that this isn't the main attraction of the show but occasionally leads to pieces of gold like this.
the guy who plays obama in this skit is the first black/mixed actor to be on the show, and he was born and raised in northern finland. |
