‘Saturday Night Live’ reveals new Obama

Filed under ENTERTAINMENT

Jay Pharoah will portray the president on the Saturday night show.

There’s a new President Obama on “Saturday Night Live.’’

Comedian, actor and impressionist Jay Pharoah debuted his POTUS impression on the show’s season premiere on Sept. 15, replacing Fred Armisen in the role.

In the opening sketch, Pharaoh’s Obama reminded voters that while he may have his flaws, the alternative — a Mitt Romney presidency — would be far worse.

Jason Sudeikis reprised his awkward-rich-guy impersonation of Romney and Taran Killam rocked a Wisconsin accent to play arithmetic-challenged running mate Paul Ryan.
