Just what it says, for hauling "cargo". They can haul just about anything the Army needs for war to include tanks, helicopters, trucks, people, and much more. During peacetime, they may carry relief supplies to disaster areas, or just general cargo from state to state, or country to country. The cargo planes air also used for aerial delivery of cargo (Air Drops).

Name of president's Jet?

The plane used to transport the President is always called Air Force One, irrespective of which particular plane he's in. It is generally a Boeing 747-200 modified with special equipment such in-flight refueling. To be more technical, it is Air Force One if he is on an Air Force Plane, Marine One when he is on the helicopter, or Navy One if he is on a Navy plane. The "one" gives the aircraft priority in aviation hierarchy (the smaller the number, the higher the priority).
