Two major influences in Barack Obama's life that encouraged him to be President were his mother and Nelson Mandela. His mother instilled in him a sense of public service.

Martin Luther King, Jr., the Dalai Lama, Lech Wałęsa, Stephen Biko, Aung San Suu Kyi, and Nelson Mandela. (Oh and Barack Obama says he is inspired by Gandhi too.)
Yes, many people have inspired Barack Obama throughout his life, including civil rights leaders like Martin Luther King Jr., activists like Nelson Mandela, and politicians like Abraham Lincoln. His mother and grandparents also played a significant role in shaping his values and beliefs.
Yes, in 2006 when Barack Obama was a US Senator, he met with Nelson Mandela, and then in 2011, Michelle Obama and the two Obama daughters met with Mr. Mandela. President Obama had hoped to meet with Nelson Mandela during a late June 2013 trip to South Africa, but the former South African leader is very ill and his family did not believe he was healthy enough for more visitors.
President Obama has said on many occasions that he has deep admiration for Nelson Mandela. He felt honored to meet Mr. Mandela in 2006 and wished it were possible to see him again during the presidential trip to South Africa; sadly, Mr. Mandela is not well enough to receive visitors, but President Obama met with the Mandela family and expressed his affection and respect for what Nelson Mandela has done for peace and diplomacy.
