Best Answer

It is unclear what you are asking. If you are asking about how long he served in congress, he served nearly 12 years as an Illinois state senator, and then 4 years as a U.S. senator. Given 365 days in a year, we may say his congressional service was about 4,380 days in the state legislature and then 1,460 days in the senate, for a total of 5,840 days (the numbers may be off, given a couple of extra days during leap years). As President, he was elected in November 2008 and took office in January 2009. In January 2013, he will begin his second 4-year term.

Obama was sworn in as a Senator on January 4, 2005.

You can do the counting yourself, but as of today (August 11, 2008) I count 3 years, 7 months, 7 days. As of today, that makes 1,318 days.

Actually, this is a gross overstatement.

If you consider only the number of work days in the senate from the time of his election until he formed his presidential campaign, Obama served 144 days in the senate. McCain has served just under 2,000.

Actually, you undershot it... it was 1413 days :)... the answer was just on a quiz show :D

Barack Obama served as the 44th U.S. president for eight years -- or 2,922 days. He became the third consecutive president to fulfill two complete terms in office (Bill Clinton and George W. Bush preceded him).

That had not been done since the early 19th century, when Presidents Thomas Jefferson, James Madison and James Monroe each served two four-year terms.

Former President Barack Obama's political career began in 1996, when he first became an Illinois state senator, and it ended after his second term as president. Thus, he served in politics from his election in 1996 to the end of 2016, when a new president was chosen: a total of 20 years.
