An image sealed in the annals of history.

The new president wore a red tie and white shirt with his new tuxedo made by Hart Schaffner Marx, a unionized factory in Chicago. This was topped with an overcoat adorned with an American flag pin.

Michelle Obama wore a sparkling yellow-gold sheath dress with matching coat by Cuban-born American designer Isabel Toledo. She paired the ensemble with green gloves from J. Crew and green shoes.


The world witnessed in high emotion , the first ever colored American President take his oath with the bible.


Most significant parts of his historical inauguration speech:

" .... know that America is a friend of each nation and every man, woman and child who seeks a future of peace and dignity, and that we are ready to lead once more."


" To the Muslim world, we seek a new way forward, based on mutual interest and respect. To those leaders around the globe who seem to sow conflict, or blame their society's ills on the West- know that your people will judge you on what you can build , not what you destroy."


Beyond well said. Beyond well thought and rehearsed.


Billions worship the ground he walks on.


They look up to him for hope of a better future. One rid of economic uncertainties, free of terrorism and war.

A new world. A better world.


Maybe.

Obama represents hope and change.

Hope he certainly gives. Change, we all hope.

Now that he is the 44th Elected president of the USA, we will all wait in batted breath.

" Remake America, " he says.

"Please remake the World," we say.
