The President of the United States of America

I. BIOGRAPHY

Barack Hussein Obama II who was born August 4, 1961 is the 44th and current President

of the United States. He is the first African American to hold the office.

Born in Honolulu, Hawaii, Obama is a graduate ofColumbia University and Harvard Law

School, where he was president of theHarvard 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. He served

three terms representing the 13th District in the Illinois Senate from 1997 to 2004, running

unsuccessfully for the United States House of Representatives in 2000.

Obama first received national attention for his keynote address at the Democratic National

Convention in July 2004, and his subsequent election to the United States Senate in November

2004. In 2008, he received the Democratic Party's presidential nomination after a close primary

campaign against Hillary Rodham Clinton. He then easily defeated Republican nominee John

McCain in the general election, and was inaugurated as president on January 20, 2009. Nine

months later, Obama was named the2009 Nobel Peace Prize laureate. He was re-elected

president in 2012, defeating Republican nominee Mitt Romney by a slightly closer margin than

his 2008 victory.

In his first term as president, Obama signed economic stimulus legislation in the form of

the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 and the Tax Relief, Unemployment

Insurance Reauthorization, and Job Creation Act of 2010 in response to the 20072009 recession

in the United States. Other major domestic policy initiatives include the Patient Protection and

Affordable Care Act, the DoddFrank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act,

the Don't Ask, Don't Tell Repeal Act of 2010, and the Budget Control Act of 2011. In foreign

policy, Obama ended U.S. military involvement in the Iraq War, increased troop levels

inAfghanistan, signed the New START arms control treaty with Russia, ordered U.S. military

involvement in Libya, and ordered the military operation that resulted in the death of Osama bin

Laden. In May 2012, he became the first sitting U.S. president to publicly

support legalizing same-sex marriage.
