If you are asking what would happen if a president were to die in office, this has happened to several presidents, including John F. Kennedy (who was assassinated) and Warren G. Harding (who died from a lingering illness); in the case that a president dies during his term, his vice president would take over for him, which is what happened when Harding died suddenly in 1923: his vice president, Calvin Coolidge became president; and when Kennedy died in 1963, his vice president, Lyndon Johnson, assumed the presidency. So if something were to happen to President Obama, his vice president Joe Biden would take over.
