Barack Obama

Barack Obama is a human in the Revenge of the Fallen live-action film series.

If you need us to tell you which of these two dudes is Barack Obama... then where the hell have you been?!

Barack "Barry" Obama (August 4, 1961–) is the 44th President of the United States. He has the oratory of an Abraham Lincoln.

Obama is a young, charismatic, media-savvy President, and practices the disgusting Earth custom known as "vlogging."

He believes that matters of national security should be decided by partisan politics (at least when it comes to aliens), and hired the human equivalent of Bonecrusher as his National Security Adviser. His Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Morshower, is a more reasonable guy.

Revenge of the Fallen (franchise)

Sharkatron3000 posted a clip on The Real Effing Deal from an interview of Obama when he was still running for president.

If you are elected and you learned that the government knew aliens had visited Earth, and the public didn't know...would you be sure the public found out?Channel 2 reporter

It depends on what these aliens were like, and whether they were Democrats or Republicans.Barack Obama

Sharkatron3000 took the interview as evidence that the President is completely unprepared for the prospect of alien visitors, because he treated the question as a joke.The Real Effing Deal

Later, Leo Spitz cited the President's actions as a justification for his own video-blogging.The Real Effing Deal

Revenge of the Fallen movie

Even though the Autobot-NEST team had successfully destroyed the Decepticon infiltrators in Shanghai, China, the new President of the United States was less than impressed with the destruction caused during the operation. President Obama sent Director Theodore Galloway to Diego Garcia to outline the White House's criticisms of NEST's operations and their alliance with the alien Autobots, in particular Optimus Prime's open invitation for Autobot refugees to arrive to Earth. They feared that reason the Decepticons being on Earth was to seek vengeance upon the Autobots and their allies, and when General Morshower attempted to defend Major Lennox and his men's judgement by stating they were above reproach, Galloway stated that as far as the President was concerned, nobody was above reproach. He directly asked Optimus Prime that if the President felt that the United States' national security was better served by having the Autobots leave Earth, would they do so peacefully? Optimus Prime agreed, but bluntly told Galloway to pass along a message to the President: What if the Autobots leave, and the humans are wrong?

Soon afterwards, Optimus Prime was killed in battle whilst defending Sam Witwicky, and The Fallen began his invasion of Earth. Among the casualties were Paris, France and the aircraft carrier U.S.S. Theodore Roosevelt. Appalled with this loss of life stemming from an alien civil war, the President ordered the deactivation of NEST and the immediate transportation of the Autobots back to Diego Garcia. Galloway also revealed that the President was considering The Fallen's demands that Sam Witwicky be turned over to the Decepticons to spare Earth. Revenge of the Fallen

Notes

• The real-life President Barack Obama got involved with Revenge of the Fallen following a chance meeting with Michael Bay at an airport, and his scene was added during post-production.

• In an alternate timeline presented in the UK Titan comics, in which the Decepticons were victorious in the battle of Mission City, Obama did not become the 44th President of the United States. Instead, when the 43rd President is killed, fictional Vice President Theodore Allen became the 44th president. Aftermath Part 1

• Obama was the inspiration for much of TransTech Optimus Prime's bio.
