President Obama, Our 44th President
It's official! President Obama has taken his oath and has been sworn into presidency. For those of you who were not able to catch this historical event I have included a link to President Obama's inauguration speech. As I first watched there seemed to be some confusion with words as Obama was being sworn into presidency. Later I discovered that it was not President Obama's fault. He was given the wrong phrases to repeat back to Chief Justice John Roberts, who chose not to read the words from a script, instead from his own memory. Concluding the oath, President Obama took the stand and greeted the 1.2 million plus people that attend this honorary event. His speech spoke of the road ahead and he left out policy after policy like the many speeches during the running for President-- it was a nice change to not hear all of that...again! President Obama's inauguration speech. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/27721638/vp/28657278/#video Indeed, he has his work cut out for him, that is evident! But with the backing of the people of the United States of America, I believe we can foresee change, for the better, in our country!

Actually, he was president at noon whether he said the oath or not.
