Inauguration of Barack Obama

Smithsonian museums were filled with adulation across the National Mall, as momentous history took place. On Tuesday, the first African-American President was officially inaugurated, and the country was filled with great spirit and sense of accomplishment. The accomplishment of a huge step in breaking the racial barriar. Nearly two million people enveloped the Capitol to the Lincoln Memorial to watch the inauguration.
Thousands more filled the street of Pennsylvania Avenue, where a black limousine escorted Obama to the White House. The immense turn-out of the inauguration spoke volumes about the appeal of Barack Obama. Many of the mall crowds, could not even see Barack, as he was a speck in a sea of security gards, police officers, and several snipers on every roof. They watched in the distance on a giant television screens, just to be a present at a moment of history.
Advice from many officials, advised people to arrive early, even to wait in the dark and bitter cold. As the sun rose against the night sky, the glory of US merchandising was exposed. Many people bought Barack Obama tattoos, badges, coinds and several other qwerky merchandise.

Even the swearing-in had lived up to the hype. Even though he had messed up giving Barack Obama the wrong words of the oath, Barack stuck with what was given to him and later gave a wonderful speech infront of millions of cameras and millions of people. People were jumping with excitement the great orator didn't disappoint when he delivered a predictably emotive, beautifully-phrased address.There tended to be subdued silence during the long passages, in which the new President spoke of the challenges ahead, enthusiastic cheering whenever he said anything more upbeat and a particularly loud roar when he talked tough about standing up to terrorists.

Opinion: I thought that Obama's inaugural speech was inspiring and embracing. His responsible acceptance of the responsiblity before were eminent. His humility and loyalty to the country were obvious. Here's a man with the ability to lead, and I pray that he does what's best and what's right for this country. A milestone towards racial equality was made on Tuesday. Even though the vows were skewed with, Obama still was able to give a great speech, having been proceeded by Pastor who gave a prayer to remember for the ages, Obama's message of hope reached millions of people across the world. On TV, I remember the African's in several African villages screaming with joy, to have one of their own become the most powerful man in the world.
