Answer 1

PART-1) In history, Barack Obama was the first African American to be nominated on a major ticket by the party, and was president for 8 consecutive years. The United States in year 2008 got Barack Obama to be their president. Obama was a successful candidate as he was neither indignant nor righteous. He ran a campaign that was culturally as well as racially inclusive. For example: During his first presidential campaign Obama employed an approach of race-neutral and used color-blind and universal language that appealed to most of the people in U.S. He promised to make a better United States to help students and for immigrants. The campaign brought in numerous voters that were young and from different minorities. The Barack Obama election as a President was a milestone in America's racial history as it the presence of a black man in the White House changed the approach on how we see each other.
