Who is Barack Obama's idol?

Answer 1

One of his role models is Abraham Lincoln, and he has spoken of his admiration for Martin Luther King. Interestingly, he has also spoken of the deep respect and love he had for his grandmother, who raised him after his mother became ill. Also Chuck Norris is a great Rollmodel. He is also inspired by Spider Man.

Answer 2

Barack Obama,being the first American black president would definetely be a good president in other to signify and visualise the fact that it's not only a white man can move America forword as the earlier Americans think, that makes them deny the blacks from casting their votes in the previous centuary. Obama will surely record the difference that the unborn generation will live to use as reference.

Answer 3

Whether you agree with his political views or not, even his opponents have acknowledged that he is an excellent role model as a family man: he is devoted to his wife and daughters; and unlike his own father, he is very involved in their lives. He spends time with his kids and takes an interest in what they are doing. Further, he is a role model as an educated person: despite coming from a difficult background (a father who left the home when Barack was only two and had just about no contact with him after that) and being raised in a family that was by no means wealthy, he was able to graduate from Columbia, then graduate with academic honors from Harvard Law School. He is thus a good example of someone who did not let obstacles prevent him from achieving.

Answer 4

He has said in his writings that he looks up to Martin Luther King, Abraham Lincoln, and Franklin D. Roosevelt; he has also noted on many occasions how much he admired his mother and maternal grandmother, who raised him.

Answer 5

It is not clear he has an "idol," but he has expressed great admiration for Martin Luther King Jr., Abraham Lincoln, and Franklin Delano Roosevelt. He has also said his mother and maternal grandmother (who both helped to raise him) were inspirational figures in his life.

Answer 6

Barack Obama is a role model to society because he is the President of the United States of America. He was the first African American person to gain the power of the Presidency. He is an educated person and an inspiration to millions: young, old, and in between.

Answer 7

Because he supports indefinite detention of innocent people without a trial, and he supports the inhumane slaughter of innocent women and children in the Middle East with drones. He lies about pretty much everything, his statistics are flawed, he wants unconstitutional control over the peoples' rights, etc.

He's an absolute EXCELLENT role model for a socialist. If you're someone like me though, you know the above list is absolutely horrible, and you know that this president along with Bush, Clinton, etc need to be in PRISON.
