42 people were U.S. President before Barack Obama. Obama is called the 44th U.S. President because Grover Cleveland is counted twice (22nd & 24th) due to his two terms being non-consecutive.
There is only one president on the list of presidents that have not been white due to fact that we only have one black president. Also, this president is Barak Obama.

Obama,Bush,and Clinton
Yes- 43 people have been the US Presidents. Barack Obama is often called the 44th president and the reason for the confusion is that Grover Cleveland who was elected president in 1884 was defeated for re-election in 1888 but ran again in 1892 and won, so he was called both the 22nd and the 24th President even though he was just one person.There have been 43 (44) Presidents of the United States (including Barak Obama).5 are alive at the present (February 2012):Jimmy CarterGeorge H.
