In Judges chapters 4 and 5 and the book of Hebrews chapter 11 you will find "Barak" mentioned (but this is not to be confused with Barack).
I don't know if one would call them 'leaders', but they were among the many Judges God provided for Israel to save them from specific enemies.(Judges 2:16 )Some even called 'saviors' (Nehemiah 9:27).Deborah was a prophetess and 'judge' in Israel, but in a limited sense.(Judges 4:4-5) She was generally not physically leading the nation in warfare against their enemies, but handling difficult problems that people would bring to her . She was highly respected and used by God to call Barak to serve as judge for the overthrow of Jabin and Sisera, and even went with him on that campaign . (Judges 4:6-10+14) However, it was Judge Barak who effectively delivered Israel from Canaan (Hebrews 11:32)Deborah is not listed among the twelve judges of Israel mentioned in the book of Judges: Othniel, Jair, Ehud, Jephthah, Shamgar, Ibzan, Barak, Elon, Gideon , Abdon, Tola and of course Samson, who quelled the Philistine nation, with strength from YHWH.(Judges 13:5)(Judges 15:20)
In his youth, Barak Obama was an ambitious man.
Son of Abinoam whom the prophetess Deborah summoned to assume military leadership of the Israelites against Sisera's Canaanite forces (Jud. 4:6).

Judges 4:4-9 (From the New World Translation that has the divine name) "Now Debʹo·rah, a prophetess, the wife of Lapʹpi·doth, was judging Israel at that time. She used to sit under Debʹo·rah's palm tree between Raʹmah and Bethʹel in the mountainous region of Eʹphra·im; the Israelites would go up to her for judgment. She sent for Baʹrak the son of A·binʹo·am out of Keʹdesh-naphʹta·li and said to him: "Has not Jehovah the God of Israel given the command? 'Go and march to Mount Taʹbor, and take 10,000 men of Naphʹta·li and Zebʹu·lun with you. I will bring to you Sisʹe·ra, the chief of Jaʹbin's army, along with his war chariots and his troops to the stream of Kiʹshon, and I will give him into your hand.'" At this Baʹrak said to her: "If you go with me, I will go, but if you do not go with me, I will not go." To this she said: "I will certainly go with you. However, the campaign you are going on will not bring you glory, for it will be into the hand of a woman that Jehovah will give Sisʹe·ra." Then Debʹo·rah got up and went with Baʹrak to Keʹdesh."
Deborah was judging Israel during that time (Judges 4:4). According to the Bible, Sisera was killed by Jael, Heber's wife, after letting Him go to sleep deeply (Judges 4:21). After that, Jael met Barak and showed Sisera dead in her tent.
Barack Obama is not mentioned anywhere in the Bible. The Hebrew Bible (Old Testament) and the New Testament were written thousands of years before American politics were ever created. If you are asking about certain preachers who claim they can find predictions of modern events in certain Bible verses, such claims are usually false; there is no evidence that any predictions about President Obama exist in the Holy Scriptures.
There are two women that figure prominently in the Defense of Ancient Israel: the Prophetess and Judge Deborah, who helped Barak lead an army against the Canaanite King Jabin, and the woman Jael who killed the Canaanite General Sisera with a tent peg.
Judges 4:22 - And then, as Barak pursued Sisera, Jael came out to meet him, and said to him, "Come, I will show you the man whom you seek." And when he went into her tent, there lay Sisera, dead with the peg in his temple.[NKJV]
