How many black students are there at Barack Obama’s school when he was ten? Ten-

Ten-year-old Barack Obama was one of only three black students at his school in Hawaii, US. He felt very different from most other students. White girls wanted to touch his hair. A white boy asked him whether his father ate people.
   " I lied to them that my father was a Kenyan Prince. But I kept asking myself who I am, " said Obama.
   However, 37 years later, the boy made history. On Nov. 4, 2008, Obama became the first black president in US history.
   Obama was born in 1961, to an African father and a white American woman from a small town in the US. He grew up in Indonesia and Hawaii. This unusual background made him wonder who he was. He once turned to alcohol to help forget this question.
   With help from his friends, Obama finally turned his life around at college. His hard work made him a star at Harvard. Later, he became the third black senator in US history.
   During his race to the highest post in the US, Obama talked about his background. He called for a United States of America, rather than a white America or a black America.
   Obama’s success has made Martin Luther King’s dream come true. That is: A man should not be judged by the color of his skin, but by the content of his character.
