Barak Obama

Obama's speech was not one meant for the ages, but for confronting the problems of today. Instead though, his speech will surely be remembered throughout history.In his speech he firs affirmed and confronted the crisis we are all now in, and have been in for months. Obama then went on to offer and reaffirm the prospect of peace that our nation stands for, but has been destroyed over the past eight years. Obama then concluded that the fate of the nation was truly in our hands. Obama's day started out in St. John's Episcopal Church, and continued as he was introduced and sworn in to a record breaking crowd of a couple million people. As soon as his speech was over the 21 gun salute was given, and a new age began.
