Well, since March 4, 1933 and the Twentieth Amendment, the US Presidential Inauguration has been on my Birthday, January 20.

My first was Eisenhower’s second. And I just watched parts of Obama’s second today. Things have changed, as they always do.

The fact that it can be done without eruptions of violence in such a huge country is what make us one of the largest countries where something resembling ‘democracy’ actually can happen.
