Barack Obama Inauguration Speech Page #3

---

by associate-justice

John Paul Stevens who's 88.

A long and serving member

of the supreme court.

Joe Biden is now Vice-President

of the United States.

And of course that have been

too many times in American History when

the Vice-President...

and his oath, then became

the presidential oath at some stage

in a time ???? because

of assassinations or resignation.

We hope that never has to come

and pass, but it has passed

too many times

in the history of this nation.

And that is because of that

that Barack Obama's had

an unprecedent event of security,

even in the very beginning of

this presidential campaign, he received

secret-service agents

of secret-service security detail

whether the other candidates had not.

It gives you some idea of the

worries that surround the office,

and also especially this man.

Anthony McGill, clarinet.

Yo-Yo Ma, cellist.

And Gabriela Montero, pianist.

Performing "Air and Simple Gifts",

composition arranged for this occasion

by John Williams.

So the special compostion

by John Williams

with four of the most-gifted musicians

in the world, and all of this of course

part of a program that has been approved

by Mr. Obama himself,

and we'll enjoy the music in a second,

just a little frontier about

Barack Obama himself,

now that Joe Biden's been sworned,

and he's minutes away of this

winning-applause of the presidency.

He's indeed...

this will happen just after

transfer, he will be running ????

of course of these proceedings.

Then, he will have lunch

on Capitol Hill with members of Congress

and then we'll have the beginning of

the parade.

In-between all that,

that all-important presidential speech,

A little bit of history;

the longest speech

ever given by a new president;

President Harrison's

in the 1841 was so long

and he was wearing no hat.

He decided to oate

all the inaugural ????

and he could have ????

he could ????

and then he died a month later.

And it's not going

to happen this time.

But what will happen is that

the world and America will listen

to every single word

this man has to say.

And to see whether he can

turn his words into the kind of music

that we're hearing right now.

Cellist Yo-Yo Ma,

Itzhak Perlman,

Gabriela Montero, Anthony McGill,

performing this piece

by John Williams.

A piece specially commissionned

and composed by John Williams.

As we approach the moment when

The President Inauguration

will take place very unusually

It just turned noon here

in Washington DC.

The Inauguration... The chief Justice

will be called up in a second

???? just a minut before noon.

But now everyone is standing

for what I think will be that keymoment.
