Original Message
And again Obama has a suspicious oath of office as the official one will be done in private on the 20th and another one will be done on the 21st an unofficial day!
Two Swearing-In Ceremonies
The Constitution requires that new presidents be sworn in on Jan. 20
, but that falls on a Sunday this year. It’s long been deemed inappropriate to host a showy inauguration ceremony on the Sabbath, so that means Obama gets to take the oath of office twice:
he’ll be sworn in in a private ceremony at the White House on the 20th
, and will take part in a big public ceremony at the Capitol on the 21st. The last president to take two oaths in this way? Ronald Reagan, in 1985.
