Barrack Hussein Obama, the President of the United States Of America, was born on August 4, 1961, to Barrack Obama Sr., a black Kenyan father, and Ann Dunham, a white American Mother. His father earned a scholarship to study at the University of Hawaii, which made him leave Kenya to pursue his dreams. While in the U.S., he met Ann Dunham, a fellow student, and they married in 1961. Obama was then born six months later. While he was still young, his father relocated to Massachusetts to pursue a Ph.D., which made him separate from his wife and months later ultimately divorced. Obama was only 2 years at the time. Dunham married in 1965 to Lolo Soetoro, and the family moved to Indonesia a year after. Obama enrolled in Punahou Academy while he was living with his grandparents, graduating with academic honors. In 1982, when he was 21 years old, his father died in a car crash as he was traveling in Nairobi. Obama went ahead to study at Occidental College located in Las Angeles, where he stayed for two years before transferring to Columbia University. In 1983 he graduated with a political science degree. After working for two years in the business sector, he moved to law and went to further his education in Harvard Law School, and later went to Chicago to practice as a lawyer.
The entry into Illinois politics saw Barack Obama’s career take a new turn. He started by publishing a book, Dreams From My Father, in 1995, which was received with high praises from notable literally figures such as Toni Morrison. His advocacy as a civil rights lawyer led him to run for Illinois State Senate in 1996, which he won comfortably. During this time he helped in creating a state earned-income tax credit in order to help the poor. He managed to beat other competitors to become chairman of the Health and Human Services Committee in the Illinois Senate, working with law enforcers to introduce videotaping of confessions and interrogations in all capital cases. Following the devastating 9/11 attacks that happened in 2001, Barrack was an opponent of President George W. Bush’s directive to take soldiers to war in Iraq. In 2006, he wrote his second book entitled The Audacity of Hope, which discussed his vision for America’s future. Shortly after the book was released, it becomes best-selling on both Amazon and New York Times. Obama made headlines in February 20017 when he announced that he was to be one of the candidates in the 2008 presidential nominations for Democrats. He won the nomination and was later the 44th President of the United States, beating John McCain. After serving his first term, Obama ran again for the same seat and won, giving him another term as the president.
Barrack Obama is the 44th President of the United States. He is best known for his leadership style, having led the U.S for two terms. He is also famous for his political life, especially as the Senator of Illinois State, serving from 1997-2004.
Being the 44th President of the United States, Barrack Obama lives in the White House located in Washington, DC. He lives with his wife and two daughters. His paternal relatives, however, still live in Kenya, where he has visited once since he was elected the President of the United States.
