Obama Takes His Oath

Amidst the ballooning economic crisis, bedlam, job shed, cessation of businesses, what can the 44th US President say?


In his Inaugural address, Barack Obama, the first African-American US President said:

"xxx America, in the face of our common dangers, in this winter of our hardship, let us remember these timeless words. With hope and virtue, let us brave once more the icy currents, and endure what storms may come. Let it be said by our children's children that when we were tested we refused to let this journey end, that we did not turn back nor did we falter; and with eyes fixed on the horizon and God's grace upon us, we carried forth that great gift of freedom and delivered it safely to future generations."

With high hopes, I'd like to wish the young president peace and prosperity. May he be an instrument to his nation's ideals.
