Yes and no. Yes Barrack Obama is the first US president, but no he is not the first BLACK president. There has been many black presidents of the countries in Africa.

Obama is the first US president with any major black ancestry. He father was a native black African but his mother was white, so he is as much white as black. However he seems to prefer to think of himself as black.
