In this portion of the paper, I will be discussing the biography of Barack Obama.

Luke Cage is a Marvel-Netflix series based on the comic book hero Luke Cage. The series is part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) and is set in Harlem, New York. The show is about an ex-convict and fugitive named Carl Lucas, who uses the pseudonym Luke Cage after escaping prison because of an experiment gone wrong that left him with super-strength and bulletproof skin. Luke Cage is a racially and politically conscious series that challenges stereotypes and social norms in a very appropriate way. The series has a strong emphasis on several of the terms discussed in class so far, however, there is a special connection to brute, “American Dream,” explicit bias, and framing. The character Carl Lucas is an obvious representation of the

He was a community organizer in Chicago before earning his law degree. He also worked as civil-rights lawyer and teacher before pursuing a political career. He was later elected to the Illinois State Senate in 1996, serving from 1997 to 2004. He was elected to the U.S. presidency in 2008. President Obama continues to enact policy changes in response to the issues of health care and economic crisis.

There will be many times where people will look back into history years from now and remember the significant events of the 2000s, and a big reason for that is the advances both in technology and society that took place. On the day of November 4, 2008, a man of strong beliefs from Hawaii named Barack Obama announced that he was running for president of the United States. He won the election and was sworn into office becoming the 44th president of the United States on January 20, 2009. He has not only marked a page in history in becoming the first African American president, but has tried to work to better the economic and political aspects of the country. After his term in office was coming to a close, he won the re-election in 2012 and will be currently running in office until January 2017 when his final term ends and a new presidential candidate will gain office.

Barack Hussein Obama Jr, the first African American President of the United States, was born on August the 4th 1961 in Honolulu, Hawaii. Obama’s birth is considered as an important turning point for African American’s in history, he was the first African American to serve as a United States president. Barack Obama is currently the 44th president of the United States. He was raised in a middle class family with education being the core of their lives and had very noble values. Obama was a graduate of Columbia University and Harvard Law School, he was elected the first African-American editor of the Harvard Law Review. Obama met Michelle Robinson in 1989 in Chicago’s law firm of Sidley Austin as a summer associate and not too long after that they began to date. Obama was a civil rights attorney, community organizer in Chicago where he helped rebuild communities that was devastated by the closure of the local street plants and a teacher at University of Chicago Law School before pursuing a political career. The time Obama spent helping rebuild the communities he that this time of his life “the best education I ever had, better than anything I got at Harvard Law School” (1). For Obama, he explains that from that experience is what contributed to finding his identity and forming the path that he has taken whilst in the white house. Barack Obama won the election in November 4th 2008 and then took office on January the 20th 2009, these two dates were significant days for America.

James Barber presents an intriguing method into uncovering and analyzing the presidency. As Barber explains, “To understand what actual presidents do and what potential presidents might do, the first need is to see the man whole—not as some abstract embodiment of civic virtue, some scorecard of issue stands, or some reflection of a faction, but as a human being like the rest of us, a person trying to cope with a difficult environment.” The President’s personality amplifies in world affairs. Ultimately, James Barber’s breakdown of the presidential character is semi-credible/reliable, offering a unique perspective into Barack Obama’s presidential character that can be described as generally active-positive and passive-positive,

Barack Obama has high degree of knowledge about political matters.  According to White House, he attended law school at Harvard University and taught constitutional law at the University of Chicago. Besides, he started his political career in 1996 by being the Illinois Senator (“President Barack Obama,” 2015). Thus, the knowledge that he learnt allows him to make a well-planned

The presidency of the United States has gone through a transformation in the ability to direct the nation and preform executive actions to help shape the country. Well renowed political sciencetist and author, Stephen Skowronek mentions in his book The Poltics Presidents Make, a presidents main priority is to be agents of political change who depend on prior presidencies to help guide their policy agenda for their respective term. Unlike Bill Clinton or other preemptive presidents, President Obama used his initial term to fix the ongoing problems from that of the Bush administration. He clearly put his ambitions for the nation aside just to combat what was at hand. Due to this, Obama is best categorized as a reconstructive leader who was chosen by the American populate to change the system put in place by the George W. Bush and to build a new political regime. Starting right from his campaign, President Obama fought to distance himself from the previous era that showed to be a major disappointment to the American citizens. Obama sought to make a new reconstructive period for the United States. Clearly not a “hard case,” President Obama has taken advantage of all his resources in the opening years of his first term in office in order to revamp the political landscape of America.

The 2016 Presidential campaign is riding on numerous factors which are being played out in 2014. Obama and his success or failure, will play a significant role in the way in which the voters may swing politically in the 2016 election. President Obama won by a landslide in 2008, which gave the Democratic party more votes than it had seen since 1964 (Martin, web). This had given hope to the Democratic Party that the American political landscape had created a new electoral map with a more diverse coalition (Martin, web). However, there seems to be concern over Obama’s involvement in the current 2016 election campaign strategy.

Ever since Barack Obama became the 44th president of the United States on November 4, 2008 he has changed America. Barack Obama was, the first African American president in U.S., history. During the election for president many candidates had promised people of America that they will make America better. Little did America know that they only did this to get people's votes. Instead of making false promises to the people of America, Barack Obama was the only candidate that used the word “change (npr)” to make the American people interested in what was going to happen. During his presidency, Obama has brought changes to the white house and to the political map in the United States (biography).

Barack starts off with the use of Metaphor to exaggerate or exemplify the reforms that he would like to make to the country. One example of this is when he talks about the “rising tides of prosperity and the still waters of peace.”(3) Here he is saying how inauguration addresses are given at all times, especially those of peace and prosperity. Another example that he portrayed was when he used the phrase “amidst gathering clouds and raging storms.” This example was to exaggerate the ups and lows that the country might be in for, as well as referencing the past to remind the
