"But the link between gray hair and psychological stress is little more than 
folk wisdom, unsupported by numerous scientific studies. That didn't stop 
widespread speculation last week, in The New York Times and elsewhere, that the 
newly noticed salt and pepper above President Obama's temples were the first 
physical manifestations of some of the highest job pressures on the planet.

A more likely explanation is that Mr. Obama is starting to turn gray for the 
same reasons other people do. He's getting older. The age of graying seems to 
be determined by heredity, The Journal of Investigative Dermatology reported in 
2005. Whites tend to gray first, often as early as their mid-30s, followed by 
Asians and then Africans. About half of 50-year-olds are at least 50 percent 
gray. So it would seem that Mr. Obama, at 47, is a little late to the graying 
game.
