Presidential Inauguration

On January 21st, 2013 President Barack Obama was sworn into office for his second term of presidency. This day also happened to fall on Martin Luther King Jr. Day which many people thought ironic. It has never fallen on Martin Luther King Jr. Day before because it has only been celebrated since 1986 and inauguration only happens every four years. There was estimated to be up to 1 million people who attended the presidential inauguration yesterday. This number is projected as 900,000 less people than his swearing in of the first term. Obama was the first president to use the word "gay" in his inauguration speech. This past inauguration was the 57th one since 1901 when they started doing them. Mrs. Michelle Obama stunned the crowd once again with her very pricey, elegant Jason Wu  red dress for the inaugural ball.
