With the Presidential Inauguration now over in America, I thought I would go back into my collection and see if I had any old film from an earlier inauguration. I found one! On March 4, 1925, Calvin Coolidge was inaugurated the 30th President of the United States. He was sworn in by Chief Justice William H. Taft on the East Portico of the U.S. Capitol. Coolidge was already President after the death of President Harding in 1923 and this was to become his only elected term. From this old silent newsreel, you'll see Coolidge along with his wife and Senator Curtis leaving by automobile. You'll see the swearing in and the many bands that played in the parade in Washington, DC. Also there is official duties and speeches at various events including Arlington National Cemetery. Calvin Coolidge died in January of 1933 and had some important firsts: his inauguration was the first broadcast on radio, he was the first President to make a sound film, and was the first to be on a coin during his lifetime. Even 84 years ago, the Inauguration of a President was a grand event. Filmed: March 4, 1925

@dbmcmillan Many had differing philosophies, but they all shared a respect for the U.S. Constitution, the American people, freedom, and oppostion to central banking and Zionsim.
Calvin Coolidge is definitely one of our most underrated presidents. He cut taxes, reduced the national debt, worked to protect American interests abroad, and made Native Americans full citizens. Furthermore, he restored honor to the presidency after the scandals of the Harding administration. We need more presidential candidates like this today.
It is with out doubt that if Harding had not died in office the Very decent and best president we have since 1900 would never have been allowed in by the Bankstinkers gangsters.
A grand and decent leader, hail his memory and honest duty!
I agree with you wholeheartedly! America needs to return to the Constitution as the Founding Fathers intended it. Coolidge was one of the few presidents who truly understood the Constitution and what his duty was as chief executive of the United States. He didn't seek his own personal power while in office; rather, he believed it a solemn honor and privilege to serve the American people. His humility is clearly seen in his refusal to run for reelection.
Coolidge was one of the greatest Presidents ever, and definitely the best from 1900 until now. He understood Liberty, low taxes, family and capitalism. He was the last of the Jeffersonian Presidents. My Favorites in no order would be Jefferson, Madison, Washington, Coolidge, Polk and perhaps Jackson. Not so much for what they did in office, but because of their ideologies. Today we have Media-CIA picked Socialist Presidents.
MY TOP 10 BEST PRESIDENTS ARE: 1. George Washington 2. Thomas Jefferson 3. Andrew Jackson 4. Calvin Coolidge 5. McKinnely would have be wonderful, but IMO the marxist who rule now had him bumped off, believe it. 6. JFK, because he did not let go of what was important with our money and the mid East, and knew the lie of WW 1 and 2 and so a 23 year old honorably discharged Marine becomes the patsy.
7. Andrew Johnson, because he tried to controll the banker lust.
What about T.R.? Andrew Jackson "moved" the Cherokee nation even after the tribe won a court battle to remain where they were. I'm part Cherokee. Jefferson Davis was not elected President of US but elected of the south during the US Civil War.
