A Peaceful Inauguration

One thing among many that struck me during the festivities in Washington for the inauguration is the fact that there was an estimated crowd of over one million people yet there was no violence, protests, drunkenness or arrests. That not only amazed me but was very tell tale. The entire country looked at this event as a moment of change and hope. As a result it was a peaceful and joyous occasion.
President Obama brings out the civility in people. His mannerisms and motivational words can change someone in a moment as was evident of the peaceful state of events while he took the oath of office.
He is a leader who will guide the USA in the right direction. He will bring this country and other countries to a new found understanding and as a result bring peace maybe not tomorrow, or next month or even in a couple of years but, he will bring peace.
