The first and only African-American president in the US is Barack Obama. President Bill Clinton was jokingly called "America's first black president" because he had many black friends and promoted policies that helped black people, but Mr. Clinton was white. Barack Obama is in fact African-American, and when he was elected in 2008, he became the country's first black president.
