This was definitely the most exciting Inauguration Day since the sixties. President Barack Obama was sworn in at 12:06 p.m. this past Tuesday. The country is in tough shape. People are hurting, and expectations are high. After years of partisan bickering and rigid ideology, Americans know that the credit cards we've rung up are now past due. I am encouraged by his confident and pragmatic attitude. He understands the need for consensus over catering to one group of like-minded citizens. I hope he gets the chance to fulfill much of the promise. As a baby boomer, I can recall enough history to realize the fact that Obama is President is a huge accomplishment in itself. This change is good.
