Barack Obama's handwriting travels sharply uphill. This shows that he is upbeat and optimistic. You will almost always find uphill handwriting in the script of highly successful and popular people (this is true whether it is the top garbage collector or the CEO of a large company).
Obama's overly large signature shows he likes attention and is a bit of an egotist.
Interestingly, whether he did it consciously or subconsciously, by intersecting the “O” and the “b” in his last name, Obama formed the Greek symbol, known as “Phi.” “Phi” represents the golden ratio or section – the “ideal” proportion recognized by mathematicians, artists and architects since ancient times. |
John McCain: The top part of his “J” is big and rounded. This indicates that McCain is willing to take on responsibility.
Even though McCain prints in all caps – typical of writers, especially men, who distance themselves from their emotions – the strong right slant of his printing shows that he has a tendency to let his heart rule his head.
The curved lead-in stroke on the “M” in McCain shows the Senator has a sense of humor.
Finally, notice that the senator’s first name is much larger than his last name, which shows John Sidney McCain III, son and grandson of U.S. Navy admirals, wants to make a name for himself, rather than relying on his family’s legacy. |
