Barack Hussein Obama II ( / b ə ˈ r ɑː k h uː ˈ s eɪ n oʊ ˈ b ɑː m ə /; born August 4, 1961) is the 44th and current President of the United States. He is the first African American to hold the office. Obama previously served as the junior United States Senator from Illinois, from January 2005 until he resigned after his election to the presidency in November 2008. A native of Honolulu, Hawaii, Obama is a graduate of Columbia University and Harvard Law School, where he was the president of the Harvard Law Review. He was a community organizer in Chicago before earning his law degree. He worked as a civil rights attorney in Chicago and taught constitutional law at the University of Chicago Law School from 1992 to 2004. Obama served three terms in the Illinois Senate from 1997 to 2004. Following an unsuccessful bid for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives in 2000, he ran for United States Senate in 2004. Several events brought him to national attention during the campaign, including his victory in the March 2004 Democratic primary and his prime-time televised keynote address at the Democratic National Convention in July 2004. He won election to the U.S. Senate in November 2004. His presidential campaign began in February 2007, and after a close campaign in the 2008 Democratic Party presidential primaries against Hillary Rodham Clinton, he won his party's nomination. In the 2008 general election, he defeated Republican nominee John McCain and was inaugurated as president on January 20, 2009. As president, Obama signed economic stimulus legislation in the form of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act in February 2009. On October 8, 2009, Obama was named the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize laureate. In March 2010, he signed the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act into law, bringing about comprehensive health care reform. From Wikipedia under the

Personally, I think Obama is going through a lot, trying to save the country after what Bush did to it. Still, I respect your opinion but, think of how hard it is to be president. Think of how hard it is to save an ENTIRE country through depression. FDR could only do it because he had extreme help from his wife where as Obama's wife doesn't really play the same role as Elenor. Answered by NONAME - Thu May 21 17:01:08 2009 How can military members serve under Obama when you swore to uphold the constitution? Q. Okay so I know this totally seems like a trolling question but I'm serious. Obama has said the constituion is seriously flawed and doesn't say what the country must do for citizens. Many of his policies and things he is doing are also unconstitutional. I believe all military members are sworn to uphold the constitution, how can you serve under Obama and uphold the constitution? Also, totally hypothetical right here but if Obama tried to take guns away from citizens where would you side on the issue, with the citizens or with Obama?

Answered by psyopspotter - Wed Mar 11 00:20:40 2009 Why does Obama think the same lib tax & spend ideas that have bankrupted every blue state work on a fed level?
Q. In what way will Obama put tax and spend liberalism successfully into practice that blue states who've used it and failed haven't ? Does Obama have some special technique ? Thanks in advance for your answers. God bless. Asked by mopar Mike aka tea party mobster - Tue Aug 11 11:53:37 2009 - - 10 Answers - 1 Comments A. It's the same old Democratic story. Spend and spend some more. That's all they can do. No wonder they never win elections every 20 or so years. Don't worry, the next GOP President is just around the corner.
