I’ve been to Pakistan, and Obama doesn’t have the same pronunciation for Pakistan that Pakistanis have.

So have I (and didn't enjoy the experience). Obama's pronunciation is closer to that which Pakistanis use even if not native-speaker correct. I don't think there's anything wrong with trying to get a name right - there are plenty of good reasons not to like Obama.
