It's about time the 2016 race to the White House deserved the 'ol Throwback Thursday treatment. 

Hard to believe, but every buttoned up politician that has taken the stage at some point during the presidential election has at least one must-see snapshot from their past. While some might have wanted to hide those groovy bell bottoms in the back of their closet, others are quite proud of their humble beginnings (wild facial hair, included!).

There's an innate fascination with what candidates and their constituents were like before any lofty aspirations included commander in chief, and rightfully so! That's why we've rounded up a few epic moments from the heavy hitters at the forefront of this year's election, including nominees Hillary Clinton, Donald Trump, their vice presidential candidates and even more. 

And for those still buzzing from Barack Obama's keynote speech at last night's Democratic National Convention, you won't want to miss private photos from him and first lady Michelle Obama's younger days in the gallery below.
