Yes, President Obama is in fact the lawfully elected American president. In fact, he got re-elected in 2012, and in January 2013, will officially begin serving his second term.
He will move into the White House and then have his ball. Then he will begin his duty as president of the United States.
President only begins with a capital when you are addressing the president or talking about a president: Presidente Obama, ¿cómo està usted? or El Presidente Obama está en Washington, DC
It would not be possible for any president "to begin passing legislation" in the face of congressional opposition.
Barack Obama will begin his second term on January 20, 2013. Some 800,000 people are expected to come to Washington to witness the inauguration.
Barack Obama doesn't own the White house. As president him and his family are allowed to live there, but as soon as his term is over they will have to leave. He was elected president on November 4, 2008 and was inaugurated to the presidency on January 20, 2009.
First, it is not accurate to say that NSA spying was "established by President Obama." Like it or hate it, the Patriot Act, championed by President Bush after the 9/11 attacks in 2001, permitted a vast expansion of spying and eavesdropping. It is true that President Obama did not curtail the program as much as civil libertarians would have liked, but he did not originate it. As for Edward Snowden, he was a contractor for the NSA, and he seems to have had quite an incredible amount of unsupervised access to personal data. Snowden resigned from a job at the CIA in 2009, but he did not begin leaking any classified documents at that time. By most accounts, it was not until 2012, when he was an NSA employee, that Snowden began downloading documents and leaking them.
Mr. Obama became president in the 2008 election, and took office on January 20, 2009. His first term (four years) is ending, and he will begin his second four-year term on January 21, 2013.
