Absolutely. He ran for the state senate in Illinois in 1996 and won. He was then re-elected several more times. In 2004, he ran for the US senate and won. And of course, he was elected president in 2008 and re-elected in 2012.

How it could happen if Barack Obama is elected president and Sarah Pailin is elected vice president?

The combination of Obama and Pailin as President and Vice-President cannot ever happen, simply because as of Jan 20, 2017 President Barack Obama ended his second term as a US President. In any election year prior to and including 2016, the two would never have been on the same ticket, since Barack is Democrat and Sarah is Republican. Sort of putting a bear with a badger and expecting them to get along. So this scenario would never, ever happen.
