The big Obama vote - the results

Will Smith Barack Obama

As the good ol' US of A has been going through the usual political frenzy leading up to presidential elections you have all been taking part in the vote to answer the question on everyone's lips: Who should play Barack Obama in his movie biopic?

Winning with 32.1% of the vote was the nicest man in movies, Mr Will Smith, followed by Oscar-winner Denzel Washington with 23.3% of the votes. Other runners were Jamie Foxx and Diff'rent Strokes' Gary Coleman with 15.7% and trailing at the back was Nutty Professor Eddie Murphy with 13.4%.

Will Smith has previously been quoted as being Obama's personal choice and when asked about it, Smith said: "He has the ears, we both share the ears. People dig the ears."
