I am prejudiced against skin color.
I don't want someone with orange skin to be Speaker of the House...

6. Eating too many carrots.
But I don't think that is his problem. He looks like he could use a carrot or two.

14. Dunno. Could be showing where the edge of the tape was when he sprayed on the color.
I often tape before I paint

20. It's an extremely amateurish PhotoShop.
Yes, he's orange. But not THAT orange.

13. Hypervitaminosis C can turn the skin ginger colored.
There are also anecdotal stories of people eating too many carrots and having their skin turn orange. It happens with babies who like their baby food carrots a little too much. But it's usually just their noses and such.

It's temporary. Once the excess vitamin (or keratin, in the case of carrots) is out of the system, normal colored-skin again...

21. At the very least
he ought to wear a tie that does not emphasize his bizarre coloring. Light green tie, and orange skin - now, come on. He's just asking for ridicule there.
