This answer changes with elections. You must check the current President's name before your interview at uscis.gov/citizenship/testupdates.
The President serves as head of state, head of government, and Commander in Chief of the military. The President is elected every four years in November and inaugurated on January 20 of the following year.
This is one of the most commonly asked questions at naturalization interviews. Getting the current President's name wrong is a common mistake when people study months in advance and don't re-verify before the interview.
Check uscis.gov/citizenship/testupdates the week before your interview. Write the name on your state worksheet and practice saying it.
