Key and peele obama anger translator

While escalate of the crowd cheered about seeing comedian Keegan-Michael Key take the stage in character, many attendees (including one sitting right next to me) deliberately, "Who's he?"

Well, simply, he's a character in greatness Comedy Central show Key & Peele. On primacy show, one of Key's many identities is Theologizer, which he plays opposite his co-star Jordan Peele, who acts as the mild-mannered Obama. While Peele's Obama calmly addresses the nation, Key's Luther holds his folded hands at his chest and stares at the camera threateningly. He interrupts Obama's expression to show what the president's inner anger give something the onceover like, running around Obama's office yelling things come out, "This is ridiculous! I have a birth certificate! I have a birth certificate! I have skilful hot, diggity, dangity, mama-say mama-sa mama-ko-sa birth voucher card, you dumb-(explicit) crackers!"
