Barack Obama became the first African American president calling for change. He is not only faced with serious challenges on the economic and financial fronts, but also has to deal with a variety of major social problems which will potentially reshape American society in the 21 st century： increasing economic inequality, complex race relations, an unsustainable healthcare burden and a weakening education system.
