Barack Obama II (Earth-616)

Barack Obama is the forty-fourth president of the United States of America. At the Presidential Inauguration a car turned up with another Barack Obama. After Spider-Man appeared and a few personal questions were asked, it was discovered that the other Obama was an impostor since he did not know how to answer such questions. The impostor turned out to be none other than the Chameleon. Spider-Man was able to subdue the Chameleon and Obama thanked Spider-Man.^[2]

Near the climax of the Siege of Asgard, President Obama recognized that Norman Osborn had gone out of control and eventually allowed Steven Rogers to deal with Osborn and the United States military to attack H.A.M.M.E.R.. Following the end of the Siege, Obama abolished the Superhuman Registration Act and appointed Steve Rogers as America's new foremost law enforcement agent.^[3]

Roberto da Costa would later impersonate him to trap The Maker.^[4]
