Barack Obama -- civil rights lawyer, legislator, professor, community organizer, author -- is, above all, a rock star. He has been called that thousands of times, and though meant as a metaphor (a rock star of American politics), he has in fact won a Grammy ... for the recording of one of his (best-selling) books. When he won the senate race, they threw confetti at him and his family, including his daughter Milia.
