Barack Hussein Obama II é um advogado e político dos Estados Unidos, o 44.º e atual presidente daquele país, sendo o primeiro afro-americano a ocupar o cargo. Nascido em Honolulu, no Havaí, Obama é graduado em Ciências Políticas pela Universidade Columbia, tendo cursado posteriormente Direito na Universidade de Harvard, onde foi presidente da Harvard Law Review. Também atuou como líder comunitário e como advogado na defesa de direitos civis e ensinou direito constitucional na escola de direito da Universidade de Chicago entre 1992 a 2004. Ele representou por três mandatos o 13.º distrito de Illinois no senado estadual, entre 1994 a 2004, tentando eleger-se, sem sucesso, ao Congresso dos Estados Unidos em 2000.

Em 2004, após vencer a primária democrata da eleição para o Senado em Illinois, ele foi convidado para fazer um discurso na Convenção Nacional Democrata daquele ano, e, com isso recebeu atenção nacional da mídia. Em novembro, foi eleito Senador com 70% dos votos. Obama começou sua campanha para a presidência em 2007 e em 2008, depois de uma apertada disputa nas primárias do partido com a também senadora Hillary Clinton, conseguiu apoio suficiente para ganhar a nomeação do Partido Democrata para a presidência dos Estados Unidos. Ele derrotou o candidato republicano John McCain na eleição presidencial de 2008, tendo sido empossado como presidente em 20 de janeiro de 2009. Nove meses depois, ganhou o Nobel da Paz.

Durante seu primeiro mandato, Obama assinou várias propostas de estimulo econômico em resposta a Grande Recessão que assolou os Estados Unidos entre 2007 e 2009, através dos projetos de lei American Recovery and Reinvestment Act de 2009. Também sancionou leis de corte de impostos para a classe média e de criação de empregos em 2010. Outras importantes iniciativas nacionais durante seu primeiro mandato incluem a Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, projeto este que passou a ser chamado de Obamacare; o Dodd–Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act; o Don't ask, don't tell; o Budget Control Act of 2011; e o American Taxpayer Relief Act of 2012. Na política externa, Obama ordenou o fim do envolvimento americano na Guerra do Iraque; aumentou a quantidade de tropas americanas no Afeganistão; assinou tratados de controle de armas com a Rússia; autorizou uma intervenção armada na Guerra Civil Líbia; e ordenou uma operação militar no Paquistão que resultou na morte de Osama bin Laden.

Obama foi reeleito presidente em novembro de 2012, derrotando o republicano Mitt Romney, e foi empossado para um segundo mandato em 20 de janeiro de 2013. Durante seu segundo mandato, Obama promoveu políticas internas relacionadas com o controle de armas, em resposta ao Tiroteio na escola primária de Sandy Hook e outros massacres, e também defendeu a igualdade LGBT. Na âmbito externo, para conter a ameaça do grupo Estado Islâmico na região do Oriente Médio, ele ordenou a volta de tropas militares ao Iraque e também autorizou ataques aéreos e navais contra a Síria para combater as organizações jihadistas locais. Além disso, continuou o plano de encerramento das operações de combate americanas no Afeganistão. Também iniciou o processo de normalização das relações entre Cuba e Estados Unidos, e firmou um acordo nuclear com o Irã.

Originally a statement about Obama by Steve Sailer from "Obama's Identity Crisis", The American Conservative (), recast into first-person as if said by Obama:

“There's been a trend around the country of trying to get college to disinvite speakers with a different point of view or disrupt a politician's rally. Don't do that, no matter how ridiculous or offensive you might find the things that come out of their mouths… If the other side has a point, learn from them! If they're wrong, rebut them, teach them, beat them on the battlefield of ideas!”

“But what we’ve also said is in order to defeat these extremist ideologies, it can’t just be military, police and security. It has to be reaching into communities that feel marginalized and making sure that they feel that they’re heard; making sure that the young people in those communities have opportunity. […] And that’s why, when I was in Kenya, for example, and I did a town hall meeting there, I emphasized what I had said to President Kenyata -- be a partner with the civil society groups. Because too often, there’s a tendency -- because what the extremist groups want to do is they want to divide. That’s what terrorism is all about. The notion is that you scare societies, further polarizes them. The government reacts by further discriminating against a particular group. That group then feels it has no political outlet peacefully to deal with their grievances. And that then -- that suppression can oftentimes accelerate even more extremism. And that’s why reaching out to civil society groups, clergy, and listening and asking, okay, what is it that we need to do in order to make sure that young people feel that they can succeed? What is it that we need to do to make sure that they feel that they’re fully a part of this country and are full citizens, and have full rights? How do we do that? Bringing them into plan and design messages and campaigns that embrace the diversity of these countries -- those are the things that are so important to do.”

“Listen, it is absolutely clear the economy is not doing fine. That's the reason I had a press conference. That's why I spent yesterday, the day before yesterday, this past week, this past month, and this past year talking about how we can make the economy stronger. The economy is not doing fine.”

“But we are here today because we know we cannot be complacent. For history travels not only forwards; history can travel backwards, history can travel sideways. And securing the gains this country has made requires the vigilance of its citizens. Our rights, our freedoms -- they are not given. They must be won. They must be nurtured through struggle and discipline, and persistence and faith. And one concern I have sometimes during these moments, the celebration of the signing of the Civil Rights Act, the March on Washington -- from a distance, sometimes these commemorations seem inevitable, they seem easy. All the pain and difficulty and struggle and doubt -- all that is rubbed away. And we look at ourselves and we say, oh, things are just too different now; we couldn’t possibly do what was done then -- these giants, what they accomplished. And yet, they were men and women, too. It wasn’t easy then. It wasn’t certain then. Still, the story of America is a story of progress. However slow, however incomplete, however harshly challenged at each point on our journey, however flawed our leaders, however many times we have to take a quarter of a loaf or half a loaf -- the story of America is a story of progress. And that’s true because of men like President Lyndon Baines Johnson.”
