First, you may find it interesting to go to the website Politifact.com which has a frequently-updated page devoted to the promises the president has made, and the ones he has kept; it also does the same with the opposition party-- what promises their candidates made, and which ones have been kept. As for President Obama, he promised in 2008 that if he were elected, he would end the US involvement in Iraq. He kept that promise. He said if given the chance, he would order the capture or the killing of Osama Bin Laden. He also kept that promise. And he also promised to change the tone in Washington and make it more collaborative. However, he has not been able to keep that promise.

Will Obama keep ALL his promises?
No matter how good the intentions of the president are (and this applies to all presidents), what they say they want to do and what they are actually able to do are two very different things. When campaigning, candidate Obama made a number of promises (as all candidates do), but once he gets to Washington, he has to work with congress, and if history is any guide, many of his priorities will not get passed, or will be watered down. Thus, it is unlikely President Obama will keep all of his campaign promises.
What are the promises that were made to the first nations people during the treaties?
Promises varied by treaty. Implicit promises were not to massacre or attack, others included land and money.
Has Barack Obama kept all his promises?
I don't know of any president (or mayor or governor, for that matter) who keeps all of his/her promises. When people are running for office, they often talk in ideal terms, to get voters to support them. "If I'm elected, I will do X, Y and Z." And at the time, the candidate may genuinely believe that if elected, these things will really get done. But the problem is that in politics, a governor or a mayor, and especially a president, cannot make unilateral decisions. Their agenda has to move through the legislature. In the case of a president, it depends on the congress, which may decide to obstruct everything a president wants to do. So, yes it is true that Barack Obama made promises he has not kept (or has not yet kept). His supporters would point out that there has been a record level of obstruction in congress, and he has done his best to overcome it. But his detractors would say he broke the promises he made and cannot be trusted. It should also be noted that Mr. Obama kept a number of the promises he made during his campaign. If you want an objective list of the promises he made versus those he kept and those that are still in the works, the website Politifact.com keeps a "truth-o-meter" on recent presidents, including Mr. Obama.
