- Hi, I was called by president / I had been called by president I was called by the president .
- / I had been called by the president.
- If you mean the president of a country, eg Obama, use a capital 'P'.
- Both sentences are correct #1 just describes an event in the past, but in #2 the Past Perfect means this event happened before some other event or time in the past that you think we are aware of.
- eg I rushed to the White House at 9am.
