Welcome Mr.President
I only got to watch a little bit of the ingauguration but what i saw was very powerfull. to see an african american president walk out after white president really shows the change that is happening to the country before Obama even takes the office. As usual Obama's speech was well written and well spoken, i especially liked the part where he said "we have to get up and dust ourselves off". this is true, after Bush we really do have to rebound, forget the past and move forward. The inauguration was nearly perfect except for the exception of the oath mess up where "execute" and "faithfully" were mixed up. although it was a day for hope, celebration, and change when Bush came out he was boooed and people were singing "na na na na hey hey hey goodbye" i feel like this should not have happened because the day was for Obama and Biden not to criticize Bush. i also only watched a little bit of the inaugural balls but i thought it was funny when Obama was dancing at the first party and there was a circle of secret service people around him dancing as well.

Family friends of ours went to go see the Inauguration and they stood right next to a man that started booing former president Bush when he came on stage. Our family friend turned to the man and said "excuse me but that is our president up there give him so respect how would you feel getting booed on your last day of serving our country." I think what he said was important for every one to know. Yes Bush was one of the worst presidents our country has ever seen but he is not the worst. He didn't back out right before getting impeached like Nixon, he didn't even go through the impeachment process like Clinton did and some people believe that he was a great president. I agree with you that the day was about President Obama and V.P Biden and we shouldn't have focused on the past when we are looking forward to change.
