It got just one sensational speech in July 2004 to make
Harvard Law graduate Barack Obama an overnight star.
Just three years later the Illinois president launched his
campaign to become first Democratic president of the US. Unlike
family members of the Bush family and the Kennedy clan, he had no
background. His father grew up in Kenya herd-
ing goats, and won a university scholarship to study in Hawaii.
Barack Obama was born in Honolulu. He was a bright, intelligent student and was accepted to study political science at Colum-
bia University in New York. On November 4, 2008 the man who once referred to himself as "the skinny kid with a funny name" was chosen as the 44th president of the United States.

Это получил только одну сенсационную речь в июле 2004 года, чтобы сделать
Выпускник юридического факультета Гарварда Барак Обама в одночасье стал звездой.
Всего три года спустяпрезидент от штата Иллинойс начал свою
кампанию, чтобы стать первым демократическим президентом США. В отличие от
членов семьи Буша и клана Кеннеди, у него не было
происхождения. Его отец вырос вверх в Кении, пася
коз, и выиграл университетскую стипендию для обучения на Гавайях.
Барак Обама родился в Гонолулу. Он был ярким, интеллигентным студентом и был принят для изучения политических наук в Колум-
бийском университете в Нью-Йорке. 4 ноября 2008 года человек, который однажды назвал себя «тощим ребенком с забавным именем», был избран 44-м президентом Соединенных Штатов.
