Almost as soon as he was inaugurated he got involved in that officer responding to an apparently burglary, with the professor who promptly hit speed-dial and got POTUS, the Cambridge guy that resulted in the "beer summit."
Before anything was in from anyone (other than his professor buddy) he made a very public statement,
"Clearly, the police acted stupidly...."
So when Trayvon came along he was, as Jimi would say, "experienced."
There was something, I can't quite put my finger on it, in common between that professor & the police officer, and Trayvon and Zimmerman.....
