Barack Obama was born on august 4, 1961.his mom was white and his dad was an African.when his dad was 23 years old, he came to the united states to get a better education.he came to the U.S in 1959.he attended a college and while he was there he met Obama mother. they soon fell in love and had Obama.but back then in the 1960, they wouldn't let anyone marry someone else who is white or black.but that didn't stop them.
when Obama was 2 years old his dad was doing so well in college that he went to Boston to finish off school. while he was down there, he didn't have a lot of money to send Obama and his mom down there to live with him. so the mother and father relationship went down hill from there.that's when Obama mom fell in love with another man who then wanted Obama and his mom to move to where he was from and they did.
when Obama was 6 years old, he moved out of Hawaii and to a small little village where the man his mom fell in love with was from. Barack didn't really like it because he had animals living in their back yard. he then had to get use to the way they were living because everything was new to him.but then the mom started to get home sick and wanted to go back to Hawaii where her mom and dad was living at the time.
when Obama was 9 years old he was reading magazines that were from the U.S. and he then realized that he was black and that the black people started to bleach their skin so that they can look white. Obama then sent him back to Hawaii to live with her mom and dad when he was 9 years old. when time went by, he would miss his mom alot. he would say most of the time that he was adopted and that his mom didn't want him anymore because when he went back to the island, his mom stayed in the little village where her lover was at.
when Obama was 10 years old, he was in school land tried to fit in because he knew he was not like the other kids in his class. when he was in the 5th grade that's when his dad came to visit him and the family. he didn't know what to do or how to act because he didn't really know his father growing up. but in 1972 his mother came back to Hawaii with his little sister and he and his mother was together once more again.he always wanted to fit in with the other kids that he was hanging with. he always was trying to be hard and act like the other blacks but he new he wasn't fitting in with that either. but over all he lived his live the best way he could as a young child and a young adult.
Obama had a hard life growing up. but he made it through thick and thin. he then in the late 80`s met Mrs. Obama and they had a long term relationship and in 1992 they got married. he did all he should do for what he believed in and what he wanted to be done, he got it done. when he 1st ran up for all this he thought it was going to be hard because everybody really knew what to do.and although he was in school for that he didn`t think it would be this hard. but look where hes at now. hes the PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES!!!!
