On January 20th, 2009, Barack Obama had made history. He was the first African American to have become president of the United States of America. Barack Obama was sworn in as president on the same exact bible Abraham Lincoln had done so on his day of inauguration. Speaking an inspirational speech, he had brought tears to those who stood in the frigid cold just to watch him. President Obama is surely to change the economic crisis we struggle today and get the US back on its track. Those capable of witnessing this historic day will remember this for the rest of their lives.
Over a billion people watched as President Barack Obama addressed the US with his eye-opening speech. Obama’s exact words from his speech are "Today I say to you that the challenges we face are real. They are serious, and they are many. They will not be met easily or in a short span of time. But know this, America: They will be met." This statement alone displays how determined he is for the change we need for this nation. He knows the many issues and is ready to face them with pride. Vowing many changes throughout his speech some included leaving Iraq, to end this war on terrorism, and to the Muslim people, "a new way forward, based on mutual interest.” America, the World has very high hopes for the 44th president knowing he will make a difference.

Deafening cheers roared at the Capitol Building as President Obama walked out for the inauguration to begin. After the swearing-in, the Illinois governor was now transferred as the President of the United States. Obama is really urging the people in picking ourselves up and remaking America. Through the years, life has not become any simpler and Barack Obama wants that to change and get the working class and America out of this economic crisis that has hung over us for the past eight years. Although there was no mention of race, many African Americans traveled to Washington just to experience this memorable day of history. President Barack Obama has also helped destroy the racial gap in our nation for many years. Obama is the president we need to turn things around and gain back the honor this country had to offer. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090120/ap_on_go_pr_wh/inauguration_rdp
I believe President Obama will bring Americans back on their feet and have an impact to the world. Obama is a dedicated and hard-working person who has the knowledge to get the nation out of this economic crisis. He will do as much as he can to have the nation excel. Although the progress may be slow, there will be a difference to the world. Barack Obama being elected as president is the turning point in this crisis.
