Barack Hussein Obama

by Noah from Nashville

My Hero is Senator Barack Hussein Obama. He is half-Kenyan half-white American and is a graduate of Columbia and Harvard Law School. He has worked as a community organizer and has helped low-income residents in the Chicago community. Senator Barack Obama resides in a house in Kenwood in the Chicago area. He was born on August 4, 1961 in Honolulu, Hawaii.

Senator Barack Obama is an important person because he wants to help the country. He is running for president of the United States of America. If he wins he will make history. If he wins he will be the first black president ever. This makes a difference for me because if he wins it’ll prove that as long as you stand for good things then you’ll be recognized as a trustworthy leader.
