Obama was never a professor. He was an instructor, but he never wrote
anything of significance....

Google 'Obama professorial posts'. Not all his students raved
about Prof Obama. Perhaps you are unsure of the difference between
an instructor (often a graduate student in the American system), and a
"lecturer", the label for a professor, as titled in e.g the British
system. States with Vo-techs often have academics titled
professor, let alone first tier professional schools.

Why Google, just go to the University of Chicago for info:

He was a senior lecturer and was invited to a tenure track leading to
professor. U of C says so.
