Even the president's past can be found on the internet, well, parts of it at least. This week a minute video of a 29-year-old Barack Obama spoke about Charles Hamilton Houston, Thurgood Marshall, and Brown versus Board in a TBS segment called "Black History Minute" filmed in 1991.

According to USA today, at the time the clip was shot, Obama was just a student at Harvard Law School and was the editor for the local publication, the Harvard Law Review. Even more interesting to see is how the future President didn't have much of his now lauded oratorical skills back then.

Heavily guided by a prompter and all but stiff in his seat, Obama recited what he was there to say and nothing more. It was a stark contrast to the promising candidate at the 2004 Democratic National Convention whose speeches were inspired and nothing short of spectacular.

It turns out that public speaking wasn't actually young Obama's forte-though involved in many a political stand, there were very few times when he actually spoke in front of people, Obama preferred to be behind the scenes.

At Harvard Law's web site, many spoke about his eloquence and the attributes he had that certainly tied together with his political image but one peer said that young Obama certainly didn't enter into public political debates.

"He tended not to enter these debates and disputes but rather bring people together and forge compromises," says Bradford Berenson, an alumnus of the class of 1991.

However, there are more pressing matters than the President's early declamatory competence. The real question is how long before we're bombarded with auto tune remixes of this clip and it lives on in perpetuity the way memes infamously do on the internet?
