College Grad Lessons

Like so many others that couldn’t be in DC today for the inauguration, I was glued to CNN.com Live with Facebook Connect. The 2008 election was the first presidential election that I was old enough to vote it, so it was already exciting for me. I would have never guessed that the first presidential election I would participate it would be so historical and inspiring. The amount of people that attended the inauguration speak for themselves. I, like so many others, am excited to watch and be part of the next four years and am proud of my country.

Today President Obama reminded us that we face serious challenges, but that we can and will stand up to them. CNN’s article about Obama’s inauguration speech highlights the key points that he made in his “sobering assessment of where America stands and a hopeful vision of what it can become as he gave his inaugural address as the nation’s 44th president.”

Below are several screenshots taken from CNN’s live coverage of the inaugurations:
