Early on the chilly morning of January 20, 2009, more than a million people gathered along the National Mall inWashington, D.C., eager to see history being made. The occasion was the inauguration of the forty-fourth president of the United States, Barack Obama, the nation’s first African-American president. As the crowds gathered in the vast space between the WashingtonMonumentand the Capitol, many more prepared to watch the inauguration on television or the Internet. The inauguration began with opening remarks by Senator Dianne Feinstein of Californiaand an invocation, or opening prayer, by minister Rick Warren, founder and senior pastor of the SaddlebackChurchand author of the popular book The Purpose Driven Life. Then, Senator Feinstein returned to the podium to introduce the “world-renowned musical artist Aretha Franklin.” [download]
