Video presentation of the full speech along with a transcript.Obama Inaugural Address | washingtonpost.com
AP: I liked the speech but he is probably better when he delves into a topic in depth instead of having to touch on many topics as is required here. I thought his construction of the terror problem from "evil" under Bush to "hatred" was probably constructive. Especially since he said "we will extend a hand if you are willing to unclench your fist."
In another switch from Bush, noted for his lack of curiosity in technological and scientific progress..
"We will build the roads and bridges, the electric grids and digital lines that feed our commerce and bind us together. We will restore science to its rightful place and wield technology's wonders to raise health care's quality and lower its costs. We will harness the sun and the winds and the soil to fuel our cars and run our factories. And we will transform our schools and colleges and universities to meet the demands of a new age."
