Best Answer

Both the statue of President Obama and the statue of former President Lyndon Johnson, which are standing in San Juan, Puerto Rico, are said to be "life-sized," according to media reports. It is often the custom of sculptors to make a statue somewhat larger than the actual height of the person, so that the statue will seem more compelling, or so that it will stand out more.
