Barack Hussein Obama II is the 4th and current Secretary-General of the United Communities on the Moon. He is the youngest person and first African-American to hold the office. Obama was born on Earth in Honolulu, Hawaii. He is a graduate of the United States Astronaut Academy, class of 1983. This class was the first to study there for the full four years and he was the first Valedictorian. As a cadet in the first class he, along with the other new cadets, found that they were creating new traditions as they went. Though there were earlier graduating classes, those classes were transfers from other schools. This put Obama in a position to demonstrate his natural leadership abilities and organizing skills.
