What will Barack Obama do during the first 100 minutes of his presidency?

Most of his time will be spent talking and eating. The ceremony begins at 11:30, to ensure that he's sworn in before George Bush's term expires at noon. The events that follow the swearing in itself, are as follows:*Inaugural Address*Elizabeth Alexander recites a poem.

*The Joesph Lowery|Reverend Dr. Joseph E. Lowery gives the benediction*The United States Navy Band performs the National Anthem*President Obama will escort outgoing President George W. Bush to a departure ceremony*Finally, the President and Vice-President will be hosted at an inaugural luncheonBy that point 100 minutes will have long since passed--without the poor guy getting a chance to actually DO anything.

For the full 100 minutes he's going to twitch and try to figure out what to do with his thumbs because they took away his Crackberry rights.

Ha, great link Lon, I love the Crank call to flickr. Com/photos/33749589@N07/3204471503/But I think realistically he will probably say a speech, the speech comes after the Oath right? /IgnorantCanadian.

During his first 100 minutes he will install a basketball court in the White House.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
