he was a laywer?
Yes he did. He was a law school professor and also a lawyer, but he gave both up to begin a career in politics.
These days, Barack Obama's career is being the President of the United States. But prior to that, his career was in law: he was a civil rights attorney and a professor of law. He entered politics in 1996, winning his first election and serving as an Illinois State Senator.
President Obama majored in law.
Thomas Jefferson's occupation prior to politics, was thaat, He was a lawyer
Prior to entering politics in 1980, Mary Landrieu worked as a real estate agent. She represented a New Orleans district in her political career until 1988.
waht was obama career befoer coming the president.........................
Barack Obama entered politics in 1996, becoming an Illinois State Senator for three terms. Prior to that, he was a civil rights attorney and a college professor (he taught legal courses) in Chicago. Prior to his going back to school for his law degree (he graduated with academic honors in 1991 from Harvard Law School), he was a community organizer and an advocate for the poor.
Before he became president, his career was law: he was a civil rights attorney and a professor of law at the University of Chicago Law School. He entered politics in 1996, running for (and winning) a seat in the Illinois State Senate.
They both are politics!!!
Obama was a lawyer and law professor before he entered politics.
I am not sure I understand the question. If you are asking where he was born, it was in Honolulu, Hawaii in 1961. If you are asking where he started his career in politics, it was in Chicago, in 1996, when he was elected to the Illinois State Senate.
Community organizer and a lawyer.
