Best Answer

He studied political science and law; graduated from Harvard Law School (where he was head of the Law Review); spent time as a community organizer, learning about the problems of the poor and residents of urban areas; and ultimately ran for office-- first as a senator from Illinois. While still a senator, he gave a very impressive speech at the Democratic Convention in 2004, and after that, he attracted more attention. He eventually decided he wanted to run for president, and earned the Democratic nomination after a long and highly competitive battle with his challenger, Hillary Clinton. Once he had secured the nomination, he ran a very effective campaign that defeated Senator John McCain.
