Barack Hussein Obama
was born on August 4, 1961 in Honolulu, Hawaii.
Barack’s first name means “Blessed’’ in Swahili, an African language.
Barack was his father’s name too, but neither of the baby’s parents called him
Barack he was always “Barry”. Barry’s father was from Kenya, a country in
Africa. His mother’s name was Stanley Ann Dunham, but she was known as Ann to
her friends. Barry was an outsider for most of his life because he didn’t have
a lot of money.
In 1992, he married
Michelle and eventually had two beautiful daughters. Their names are Malia and
Natasha (Sasha). Barry accomplished many things like writing a book titled The
Audacity of Hope, being sworn as an Illinois senator, and being awarded the
Nobel Peace Prize.
Barack H. Obama became our 44th president
of the United States on January 20, 2009!
