The 44th President of the United States, Barack Obama

It was a historic day for our country as Barack Obama was sworn in as the 44th president of the United States earlier today. Almost everyone I know was watching the inauguration live, whether they were at school, home or watching it over the Internet (Thank you ITS for streaming the event for those of us at work).

The country is at a crossroads now and whether you voted for him or not, the changing of the guard to President Obama is a major milestone in our country's history. Now he has a lot of work to do, and it will be interesting to see what his first moves as president will be.
