Barack Obama

"Barack Obama was used to be the first ever African-American prez of the US of A, but now he's back to the world of politics as a Secretary of State, just after Pompeo killed himself."

--Su Ji-Hoon, Obama Returns

Barack Hussein Obama II (/bəˈrɑːk huːˈseɪn oʊˈbɑːmə/) is an American politician who served as the 44th President of the United States from 2009 to 2017. The first African American to assume the presidency, he was previously the junior United States Senator from Illinois from 2005 to 2008. He served in the Illinois State Senate from 1997 until 2004.

Obama was born in 1961 in Honolulu, Hawaii, two years after the territory was admitted to the Union as the 50th state. Raised largely in Hawaii, Obama also spent one year of his childhood in Washington State and four years in Indonesia. After graduating from Columbia University in New York City in 1983, he worked as a community organizer in Chicago. In 1988 Obama enrolled in Harvard Law School, where he was the first black president of the Harvard Law Review. After graduation, he became a civil rights attorney and professor and taught constitutional law at the University of Chicago Law School from 1992 to 2004. Obama represented the 13th District for three terms in the Illinois Senate from 1997 to 2004, when he ran for the US Senate. Obama received national attention in 2004 with his unexpected March primary win, his well-received July Democratic National Convention keynote address, and his landslide November election to the Senate. In 2008, Obama was nominated for president a year after his campaign began and after a close primary campaign against Hillary Clinton. He was elected over Republican John McCain and was inaugurated on January 20, 2009. Nine months later, Obama was named the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize laureate, accepting the award with the caveat that he felt there were others "far more deserving of this honor than I."

In When the Cold Breeze Blows Away, Donald Trump appointed him as the Secretary of State after Mike Pompeo killed himself by eating a Tide pod and shooting himself with a Beretta 92 into his forehead at the same time when he suffered personal issues, just as he returns to politics.
