Since the Supreme Court is not actually Obama's, but all of America's, I'm assuming the question is 'who is the chief justice of the Supreme Court". The answer is John Roberts. [President George W Bush appointed Chief Justice Roberts in 2005. Supreme Court justices are appointed for life, so a sitting President only gets to nominate a new Chief Justice if that position becomes vacant during the President's term of office.]
