i messaged Apurva to inform her that CNN is broadcasting LIVE from the Capitol, the place where the Inaugural Ceremony was held. Damn, there are so many people, CNN estimated about 20 million people is presented and there were more world wide watching the auspicious event.
There was billions watching.It was about 12pm that Obama and Bush leave the White House and headed for the Capitol. I will cut short and straight to the part where Obama arrived at the Capitol. The crowds were screaming and cheering for Obama to appear on the platform. It was exactly like in a Rock Concert.
'OBAMA! OBAMA! OBAMA!'
Finally he walked out, man, he was calm and steady. And, oh my goodness, you should have heard his Inaugural Speech. It was full of Power and Certainty. The Speech was strong and when CNN zoomed in to the crowd, you can see that everyone there is paying Obama, their fullest attention. Change! He emphasised on Change. And the Inaugural ceremony was a Change itself.
Obama is the first African-American to be elected as a President.He's taking drastic actions to face the economy crisis and the Middle East affair. He used the Bible that Abraham Lincoln used when he was took his oath to be the president. Owh ya, he was also official the President by noon even before he took the oath, as stated by the Constitution.
One more fact, throughout his speech, he never read or have a script on the platform, the way he delivered his speech was from his Heart. He need not use a script for that. i salute to you, Pres. Obama
Michelle Obama's dress was gorgeous that day. Nothing too striking but it complimented her. And it was a really humble dress but it was really obvious and stood out among the masses of black.
All in all, the Inaugural ceremony was a success ending with the Obamas sending off the Bushs.
I wish Pres. Obama greatest of luck and hope that the changes he intended on can be made without further delays and can be fulfilled.
GOOD LUCK MR. BARACK OBAMA
