In accordance with Article 2 of the Constitution, a President is bound to take the following oath: "I do solemnly swear and affirm that I will faithfully execute the office of Presdient of the United States, and will, to the best of my ability, preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States". The words "And so help me God" are added, as a rule. to the traditional formula. According to the tradition established by George Washington at the first INAUGURAL CEREMONY in the Federal Hall in New York on April 30, 1789, a president takes an oath on the Bible, although this is not stipulated in the Constitution.
For his INAUGURATION BARACK OBAMA chose the Bible on which Abraham Lincoln had taken an oath in 1861. In general, BARACK OBAMA in many respects follows the ways of his great predecessor, the bicentenary of whose birth is to be marked in the United States throughout this year. The quotation from Lincoln's famous Gettysburg Address, "The New Birth of Freedom" has become the general theme of the present-day festivities.
After the INAUGURAL ADDRESS, BARACK OBAMA, in line with the tradition, will head to the Hall of Statues in the Capitol Building where a lunch is to be given in his honour.
