Barack Obama Re-Takes Oath of Office - Audio 1/21/09

This made the first failure of Obama as the President.

@truthisgold Both President and VP take an Oath of Office. Both are similar, but spoken differently.

wait if he screwed up on the 20th than we had no president for one full day

@Eddyisrich403 The President of the United States officially assumes the office at 12:00 PM EST on January 20th. An oath is just required for him to, according to Article 2 of the Constitution, "enter on the Execution of his Office". Technically President Obama did not take the oath (the first one) until 12:05 PM EST. Anything he would have done acting as President (such as if he signed a bill) during those first 5 minutes could technically be invalid.

So help me God.[8]"

""I do solemnly swear (or 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.""

Great he fucked it up a second time. Its a simple 35 words, he shouldn't be adding words or leaving words out.

Now he should have to do it a third time and get the 35 words done correctly.

sorry brkcmo93 but u made a mistake in your description. It's not Obama who repeated incorrectly, but rather Roberts who didn't say the sentence in the right order !

[sleeguy123]
