Barack obama and his career

President Barack Obama
Barack H. Obama is the 44th
President of the United States.
His story is the American story —
values from the heartland, a middle-
class upbringing in a strong family,
hard work and education as the
means of getting ahead, and the
conviction that a life so blessed
should be lived in service to others.
With a father from Kenya and a
mother from Kansas, President
Obama was born in Hawaii on August
4, 1961. He was raised with help from
his grandfather, who served in
Patton's army, and his grandmother,
who worked her way up from the
secretarial pool to middle
management at a bank.
After working his way through college
with the help of scholarships and
student loans, President Obama
moved to Chicago, where he worked
with a group of churches to help
rebuild communities devastated by
the closure of local steel plants.
He went on to attend law school,
where he became the first African-
American president of the Harvard
Law Review . Upon graduation, he
returned to Chicago to help lead a
voter registration drive, teach
constitutional law at the University of
Chicago, and remain active in his
community.
President Obama's years of public
service are based around his
unwavering belief in the ability to
unite people around a politics of
purpose. In the Illinois State Senate,
he passed the first major ethics
reform in 25 years, cut taxes for
working families, and expanded health
care for children and their parents. As
a United States Senator, he reached
across the aisle to pass
groundbreaking lobbying reform, lock
up the world's most dangerous
weapons, and bring transparency to
government by putting federal
spending online.
He was elected the 44th President of
the United States on November 4,
2008, and sworn in on January 20,
2009. He and his wife, Michelle, are
the proud parents of two daughters,
Malia and Sasha.
