Best Answer

It is a donkey and the now-famous Democratic donkey was first associated with Democrat Andrew Jackson's 1828 presidential campaign. His opponents called him a jackass (a donkey), and Jackson decided to use the image of the strong-willed animal on his campaign posters. Later, cartoonist Thomas Nast used the Democratic donkey in newspaper Cartoons and made the symbol famous.

Is Obama a donkey or an elephant?

I think you are asking what political party he belongs to, and what is the symbol of that party (these symbols were popularized by political cartoonist Thomas Nast, way back in the 1870s). President Obama is a Democrat, and the symbol of that party is the donkey. Republicans use the elephant as their party's symbol.
