Today he will be President. Who? Barack Obama of course!
The Inauguration ceremony will take place at 5-6 p.m.Norwegian time, and I'm very curious about his speech. What will it be like?
First of all, let me explain the term Inauguration...
The most common usage of the term is in the context of a formal investiture whereby an individual assumes an office or position of authority or power. The term is usually used in reference to a politician's assumption of the duties of head of state or head of government (e.g. the President's inauguration). An "inaugural address" is the presidential speech given at this ceremony which informs the people of his intentions as a leader.

In USA (and the rest of the world as well), the expectations are always enourmous before a new President get's installed, and I must say, I'm kind of excited too... Just listen to it; USA's first black President ever... Maybe it's a small step for Obama, but it sure is a HUGE step for the humanity in general and when it comes to equality of oppurtunity and treatment, Obama is a living example of the phrase "Everyting is possible. Yes, we can".
