I think he was in awe, of the crowd, that they are fired up and ready to go. That we have been energized and are ready to fight back.

Minutes after the swearing in,I received this email:

I just renewed my oath of office to serve as your president for four more years.

Thank you for making this possible. It's an honor to be your president.

Now it's time to finish what we started -- let's get going.

Barack

P.S. -- Organizing for Action is the next step in our grassroots movement and will be crucial to finishing what we started. If you haven't already, say you'll be part of it.


Go to White House site for info.

He is laying the ground work for the next four years. At the same time he is building the future for the next Democatic President.

We can do this, Michigan, together We Can!
