Presidential Inauguration of Barack Obama

Yesterday was truly a historical day with the Inauguration of Barack Obama as the 44th President of the United States. It was real! 1.4 Million people crowded Washington DC to witness his inauguration. It was star studded with many previous Presidents, both Democrat and Republican, senators and other dignitaries. What an inspirational day for many across the United States and across the World. It truly gave hope and pride that democracy can prevail successfully and give leadership to the right, capable hands, who have the collective interest at the forefront of their actions.

Personally, it made me proud and privileged to experience this in my lifetime and be apart of the following 4 years of hope & inspiration for prosperity, security and progress. It feels like being apart of a greater cause. As a North American and ultimately, a citizen of the World, it feels like a special time.

With his first day in office today, he's already executed several mandates, as per the CNBC article Obama Freezes White House Pay and video Obama's First Day in Office.
