President Barack Obama 2009 Inauguration and Address

Sat in the office this morning playing this on my computer. People around me were hugely excited (even some of the republicans - although I haven't met many). I thought his speech was great to listen to and love the way Americans don't blink from celebrating their country. All very patriotic; it appeals to me. Interestingly I had a couple of people ask me if I was going to become a citizen (actually I can't apply until I have been here for 5 years, but yes, I do want to become a citizen). Not sure what prompted the sudden interest so much as thinking those listening to the speech were feeling very proud to be Americans.
