Summary
DescriptionBarack Obama Oath of Office.ogg |
English: The full audio recording of Barack Obama and Chief Justice John G. Roberts as Obama takes the Oath of office of the President of the United States as the forty-fourth President of the United States during his inauguration on January 20, 2009. Roberts recited the oath incorrectly, which caused Obama to also stumble on his lines. The oath should be "I do solemnly swear/affirm that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States." (from Article II Section 1 Paragraph 8 of the U.S. Constitution) (Duration: 45 seconds) |
