Amid the rubble -- double trouble

A Barack Obama lookalike has been turning heads in Denver but Gerardo Puisseaux is in actual fact a Cuban immigrant from Miami.

Puisseaux was a construction worker until six weeks ago when he was hired by Spanish-language news channel America TeVe (www.americateve.com).

In his new guise as a budding television star, Puisseaux goes wherever Obama goes, causing confusion all round.

"Sometimes I get tired because everybody stopping me, a lot of questions, sometimes political questions," he told The Rocky Mountain News.

"I am not Obama."
