America has one more full month to enjoy President Obama’s reign before Donald Trump gets sworn in to take oath in January 2017.

As the world begins to say their final goodbyes, the time has come to realize what significant moments Obama did have. His presidency will always be remembered, being that he served as America's first African American president to ever take office.

When Obama first campaigned, he won in 2008 as he ran against Sen. John McCain and Gov. Sarah Palin. Around this time, it was very interesting because the Republican party were set in how George W. Bush had previously ran things in the White House and too, change was not a factor. But for Democrat citizens, they wanted something different.

Before Obama’s presidency, during Bush’s term, he sent U.S. troops to Iraq because of the September 2001attacks in New York. On this day, the world grew to know that bombs and airplanes had crashed into buildings near ground zero. It was a time where the whole world united in love. It will always remain an unforgettable experience. Troops went to war due to Saddam Hussein's explosive destruction and connection to terrorism. Many around the world were furious because of the decision Bush made.

When Obama first campaigned, he noticed the enormous issues that had taken over the country, so he called it “Change We Can Believe In.” Being that he was elected and won from Illinois, he was the first to recognize and understand the need of helping others. He tried to hold campaign rallies all over the U.S., not to win votes but to show people that he is in the race to make peace with those who may not understand race and equality but to make sure that the country as a whole will be able to live together despite things around them.

As an end result, in Obama’s presidency, there have been some triumphs the nation has experienced. Osama bin Laden, the founder of al-Qaeda that was claimed to be the reason behind the September 11 attacks was captured and died in May 2011. Another leader, would be Libya’s former Prime Minister Muammar Gaddafi, who was captured hiding in draining pipes and was brutally killed by rebels in October 2011.

Now in Obama’s second term, he pursued some of the changes that America needed to further “Forward” plans for the nation. In that, jobs were made, Americans were able to see gas prices fluctuate through the months and years, and lastly provide health care to those that could not afford it. Obama has done an excellent job representing everyone as a whole. If anyone were able to view him, they would learn that because he is president, does not mean every idea he proposed was accepted or vise versa were approved.

Obama has been a man of courage, and the nation realized that when he helped make equality more real for those to marry within the same sex. He understood and respected others rights, as same sex marriage was a big deal across the nation.

As the world prepares for the next president to take office, Obama has fully accepted President-elect Donald Trump in hope, to care for this country as much as he does.
