Nobel prize

Barack Obama Hussein
Obama's life
Barack Hussein Obama was born in Honolulu Hawai USA in 1961 august 4.
Obama  is an American politician who is the 44th and current President of the United States. He is the first African American to hold the office and the first president born outside the continental United States. He was a community organizer in Chicago before earning his law degree. He worked as a civil rights attorney and taught constitutional law at the University of Chicago Law School between 1992 and 2004.
In 2004, Obama received national attention during his campaign to represent Illinois in the United States Senate with his victory in the March Democratic Party primary, his keynote address at the Democratic National Convention in July, and his election to the Senate in November. He began his presidential campaign in 2007 and, after a close primary campaign against Hillary Clinton in 2008, he won sufficient delegates in the Democratic Party primaries to receive the presidential nomination. He then defeated Republican nominee John McCain in the general election, and was inaugurated as president on January 20, 2009. Nine months after his inauguration, Obama was named the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize laureate. He won the Nobel Peace prize due to his extraordinary efforts to strengthen international diplomacy and cooperation between peoples.

Hobbies and interests
Obama is a fan of the Harry Potter series. In April 09, he met JK Rowling at the end of the Downing Street G20 dinner that he had read all her books, and that he also read them to his daughters Sasha and Malia.
Barack Obama revealed that he prefers Jay-Z to Kanye West. In April 2012, Barack Obama told 'The Atlantic' that he thinks though Kanye West is a very talented singer, but he still think West is a jackass for interrupting Taylor Swift speech at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards.

Obama's interestins sports

Barack Obama is a huge basketball fan. He occasionally plays Basketball even during his busy schedule as the US President to keep up his fitness. Obama even played for his high school's basketball team. His number was 23.

Religious view
Obama is a Protestant Christian whose religious views developed in his adult life. He wrote in The Audacity of Hope that he "was not raised in a religious household". He described his mother, raised by non-religious parents, as being detached from religion, yet "in many ways the most spiritually awakened person that I have ever known." He described his father as a "confirmed atheist" by the time his parents met, and his stepfather as "a man who saw religion as not particularly useful." Obama explained how, through working with black churches as a community organizer while in his twenties, he came to understand "the power of the African-American religious tradition to spur social change.
 
Cultural and pollitical image
Obama's family history, upbringing, and Ivy League education differ markedly from those of African-American politicians who launched their careers in the 1960s through participation in the civil rights movement. Expressing puzzlement over questions about whether he is "black enough", Obama told an August 2007 meeting of the National Association of Black Journalists that "we're still locked in this notion that if you appeal to white folks then there must be something wrong." Obama acknowledged his youthful image in an October 2007 campaign speech, saying: "I wouldn't be here if, time and again, the torch had not been passed to a new generation."
