The Supreme Court heard and decided on the Affordable Care Act in July 2012, but presidents have no control over when or if the Court will hear a case. That is totally the Court's decision, as part of our government's separation of powers. As it turns out, the Court decided to hear a challenge to the act, but it wasn't till the end of this current session that they finally ruled on it, deciding it was in fact constitutional.
No. It has been ruled constitutional.
It is not unconstitutional. The Supreme Court ruled that it is constitutional.
It depends on the president and court. The current president is no doubt happy that Obamacare was upheld by the court.
ObamaCare. Health Insurance.
The supreme court handles cases disputing the meaning of laws and if they are constitutional. The case regarding Obamacare is an example.

Yes, it is. The Affordable Care Act (often called "Obamacare") was passed by congress in 2010, signed by the president, and then upheld by the US Supreme Court in 2012.

President Obama
When a law is passed the Supreme Court can decide if it is constitutional.
In 2009, President Obama nominated the first Latina supreme court justice, Sonia Sotomayor. She was confirmed in the summer of 2009.
To my knowledge, there is no case pending before the Supreme Court that concerns President Obama as an individual. There are probably several cases involving President Obama in his official capacity - this is true of every President.
