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.

“Meus pais não compartilharam só um amor improvável, eles compartilharam uma fé nas possibilidades desta nação. Eles me deram um nome africano, Barack, ou bendito, acreditando que numa América tolerante seu nome não é nenhuma barreira ao êxito. Imaginaram-me indo às melhores escolas na terra, mesmo eles não sendo ricos, porque numa América generosa você não tem que ser rico para alcançar seu potencial.”

Nosso orgulho é baseado numa premissa muito simples, resumida numa declaração feita há duzentos anos: "Seguramos estas verdades são auto-evidentes, que todos homens são criados semelhantes, e que a eles são concedidos por seu Criador certos direitos inalienáveis, entre estes estão a vida, liberdade e a busca da felicidade."”

“Quarenta e quatro americanos, até hoje, prestaram o juramento presidencial. Suas palavras foram ditas durante a maré ascendente da prosperidade e nas águas calmas da paz. Mas frequentemente o juramento é prestado em meio a nuvens crescentes e tempestades ruidosas. Nestes momentos a América foi em frente não apenas graças ao talento e à visão daqueles no poder, mas porque nós, o povo, permanecemos fiéis aos ideais de nossos antecessores e aos nossos documentos fundadores. Foi assim e deve ser assim com esta geração de americanos.”

Barack Obama: Frases em inglês

“Now, there’s no easy answer for resolving all these social forces, and we must respect the meaning that people draw from their own traditions -- from their religion, from their ethnicity, from their sense of nationhood. But I do not believe progress is possible if our desire to preserve our identities gives way to an impulse to dehumanize or dominate another group. If our religion leads us to persecute those of another faith, if we jail or beat people who are gay, if our traditions lead us to prevent girls from going to school, if we discriminate on the basis of race or tribe or ethnicity, then the fragile bonds of civilization will fray. The world is too small, we are too packed together, for us to be able to resort to those old ways of thinking.”

“It is important at this point that Congress offer specific constructive approaches to what’s proven to be a foreign policy disaster because we’ve got too much at stake to simply stand on the sidelines and criticize…If we simply cut off funding without any structure for how a redeployment takes place, then you could genuinely have a Constitutional crisis or at least a crisis on the ground where the president continues to send troops there but now they’re being shortchanged in terms of armaments and support…The notion that as a consequence of that [2002 Congressional] authorization, the president can continue down a failed path without any constraints from Congress whatsoever is wrong and is not warranted by our Constitution.”

Willingly, they went to jail to protest unjust laws, their cells swelling with the sound of freedom songs. A lifetime of indignities had taught them that no man can take away the dignity and grace that God grants us.

2013, "Let Freedom Ring" Ceremony (August 2013)
Contexto: p>But we would do well to recall that day itself also belonged to those ordinary people whose names never appeared in the history books, never got on TV. Many had gone to segregated schools and sat at segregated lunch counters. They lived in towns where they couldn’t vote and cities where their votes didn’t matter. They were couples in love who couldn’t marry, soldiers who fought for freedom abroad that they found denied to them at home. They had seen loved ones beaten, and children fire-hosed, and they had every reason to lash out in anger, or resign themselves to a bitter fate.And yet they chose a different path. In the face of hatred, they prayed for their tormentors. In the face of violence, they stood up and sat in, with the moral force of nonviolence.

“What Senator McCain has lately been suggesting is that somehow I'm going to take money from people making over $250,000, and give it to people who "pay no taxes". What he's confusing is the fact that even if you don't pay income tax, there are a lot of people who don't pay income tax, but you're still paying a whole lot of other taxes. You're paying payroll tax, which is a huge burden on a lot of middle-income families. You're paying sales taxes. You're paying property taxes. There are a whole host of taxes that you're paying. So when we provide an offset to the waitress or the janitor, these folks are working.”

2012, Yangon University Speech (November 2012)

“America, this is our moment. This is our time, our time to turn the page on the policies of the past, our time to bring new energy and new ideas to the challenges we face, our time to offer a new direction for this country that we love. The journey will be difficult. The road will be long. I face this challenge with profound humility, and knowledge of my own limitations. But I also face it with limitless faith in the capacity of the American people. Because if we are willing to work for it, and fight for it, and believe in it, then I am absolutely certain that generations from now, we will be able to look back and tell our children that this was the moment when we began to provide care for the sick and good jobs to the jobless; this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal; this was the moment when we ended a war and secured our nation and restored our image as the last, best hope on earth. This was the moment - this was the time - when we came together to remake this great nation so that it may always reflect our very best selves, and our highest ideals.”

“But you know, we — when we feel stress, when we feel pressure, when we’re just fed information that encourages some of our worst instincts, we tend to fall back into some of the old racial fears and racial divisions and racial stereotypes, and it’s very hard for us to break out of those and to listen and to think about people as people and to imagine being in that person’s shoes. And by the way, it’s no longer a black and white issue alone. You got Hispanic folks and you got Asian folks, this is not just the same old battles that — we’ve got this stew that’s bubbling up from people everywhere and we’re going to have to make sure that we in our own lives and our own families and work places do a better job of treating everybody with basic respect and understanding that not everybody starts off in the same situation and imaging what would it be like if you were born in an inner city and had no job prospects anywhere within a 20 mile radius or how does it feel being born in some rural county where there’s no job opportunities within in a 20 mile radius and seeing those two things as connected as opposed to separate.

“We have a better story to tell. But to say that our vision for the future is better is not to say that it will inevitably win. Because history also shows the power of fear. History shows the lasting hold of greed and the desire to dominate others in the minds of men. Especially men. History shows how easily people can be convinced to turn on those who look different, or worship God in a different way.

2014, Statement on Cuban policy (December 2014)
Contexto: I’m under no illusion about the continued barriers to freedom that remain for ordinary Cubans. The United States believes that no Cubans should face harassment or arrest or beatings simply because they’re exercising a universal right to have their voices heard, and we will continue to support civil society there. While Cuba has made reforms to gradually open up its economy, we continue to believe that Cuban workers should be free to form unions, just as their citizens should be free to participate in the political process.
Moreover, given Cuba’s history, I expect it will continue to pursue foreign policies that will at times be sharply at odds with American interests. I do not expect the changes I am announcing today to bring about a transformation of Cuban society overnight. But I am convinced that through a policy of engagement, we can more effectively stand up for our values and help the Cuban people help themselves as they move into the 21st century.

“I’ve instructed Secretary Kerry to immediately begin discussions with Cuba to reestablish diplomatic relations that have been severed since January of 1961. Going forward, the United States will reestablish an embassy in Havana, and high-ranking officials will visit Cuba.
Where we can advance shared interests, we will — on issues like health, migration, counterterrorism, drug trafficking and disaster response. Indeed, we’ve seen the benefits of cooperation between our countries before. It was a Cuban, Carlos Finlay, who discovered that mosquitoes carry yellow fever; his work helped Walter Reed fight it. Cuba has sent hundreds of health care workers to Africa to fight Ebola, and I believe American and Cuban health care workers should work side by side to stop the spread of this deadly disease. Now, where we disagree, we will raise those differences directly -– as we will continue to do on issues related to democracy and human rights in Cuba. But I believe that we can do more to support the Cuban people and promote our values through engagement. After all, these 50 years have shown that isolation has not worked. It’s time for a new approach.”

2015, Remarks to the Kenyan People (July 2015)

“Every nation struggles to define citizenship. America has had great debates about these issues, and those debates continue to this day, because we’re a nation of immigrants -- people coming from every different part of the world. But what we’ve learned in the United States is that there are certain principles that are universal, apply to everybody no matter what you look like, no matter where you come from, no matter what religion you practice. The right of people to live without the threat that their families may be harmed or their homes may be burned simply because of who they are or where they come from. Only the people of this country ultimately can define your union, can define what it means to be a citizen of this country. But I have confidence that as you do that you can draw on this diversity as a strength and not a weakness. Your country will be stronger because of many different cultures, but you have to seize that opportunity. You have to recognize that strength.”

Well, Governor, we also have fewer horses and bayonets, because the nature of our military's changed. We have these things called aircraft carriers, where planes land on them. We have these ships that go underwater, nuclear submarines. And so the question is not a game of Battleship, where we're counting ships. It's: What are our capabilities?”
