I clicked on it and there were a couple of people I have known in the past but who was at the bottom of the list?

Barak Obama.

Why would he be there? Is LinkedIn pushing a political agenda?

Haha I doubt it. More likely, several of the people in your network are connected to him, so their algorithm presents him as a potential contact.

Why not - looks like he is not the guy running for US Presidency - it should have been Barack (with a "c") ;)
