Obama election
Historic presidential win
The Obama election refers to either of Barack Obama's successful U.S. presidential campaigns—2008, when he became the first African American president, or 2012, when he won reelection.
The phrase usually means the 2008 election, a watershed moment in American political history: I remember where I was the night of the Obama election.
