And there he was again. Barack Obama, President Obama, on the high steps of the Capitol. Hand on Bible. Two Bibles this time: Abe Lincoln’s, Martin Luther King’s. Taking the oath.
And turning to that always-moving sea of Inauguration Day witnesses – citizens and more – on the National Mall.
The Inaugural Address is a moment for philosophy and, sometimes, plans. President Obama’s second inaugural sounded like both. Progressive. Lots of talk about the common good. And lots of pointers forward.
This hour, On Point: the second Obama inaugural, and the way ahead.
