Congratulations to President Obama!

What a historic day!  Even though I do not agree with most of President Obama’s political leanings, I can definitely recognize the historic importance of today’s inauguration.  I will make an additional post about the President’s inaugural address, but overall, I felt it was very centrist in nature, which was definitely a good thing.  It was definitely good to see the throngs of people on television, places I typically pass on my daily commute into Washington.  I have not seen the National Mall that packed before ever, even during the first inauguration of President G.W. Bush, which I attended, in 2001.

Today should definitely serve as an example to the rest of the world, that here in the United States of America, we can peacefully elect, and transition power from one administration to another.

I hope the Obama family and administration enjoys the day, because tomorrow, I expect the new Administration to start working.
