On Tuesday January 20st, crowds gathered in schools, Times Square and all across the world to watch Barack Obama be sworn in as the first African American President of the United States. This event has been waited for a long time, people have lived for years and years to see this day come to reality. At 12:00 pm, Barack Obama was officially the 44th president of the United States even though he was sworn in 4 minutes after. This event unfolds a great moment in history and I am sure that it will never be forgotten. Where were you when this history unfolded?
My analysis on the first article, "Inauguration jubiliation spreads across the country" is: this article focuses on different people in different places but at the same time. People were gathered everywhere to watch Barack Obama's speech and to witness history unfold. "People are cheering here as if they were there," there was joy and gladness in the air, even if people were watching all the way from California. All ages were there to support President Obama as he took a most sacred oath, either old, young or middle aged, everyone new that this day, the Inauguration of Barack Obama, would never be obliterated from people's minds. Even disabled individuals were able to witness President Obama on Inauguration Day. That is what this article really focuses on, that people all over the country and all over the world were there to watch and encourage Barack Obama.
I think that this article mostly means Barack Obama is going to bring lots of change to the U.S. "Yes, we can," people chanted while Obama made his inaugural speech. Barack Obama promised that he is going to change the way our economy is going and many believe he will. As Obama said, "...and they will be met." Everyone now marks Barack Obama's words as he said them, these words were left engraved in the hearts of many people, young and old, short and tall. Also, change is on it's way, and the United States will soon return to be the sunshine it was before. CHANGE is coming, and before we know it, CHANGE will be here!
My opinion on the inauguration is that it was awesome. There was a great deal of money spent and I think that paid off. Obama's speech was the best ever and I myself will never forget it. Based on what President Obama said, I have great hope that the economy will change for the better. Stocks will go up, houses will go up and America will pay all of it's debt. I had a great time watching the Inauguration at school and when I grow up, I will talk to my kids and grand kids about this historic day... and I KNOW where I was!
