Massive Crowds Gather for Obama Inauguration

January 20, 2009 By Megri

Hundreds of thousands of people have gathered on Washington’s national mall for the inauguration of Barack Obama as America’s 44th president. The crowd is expected to swell to an estimated one to two million looking on as Mr. Obama becomes the first African-American to take the presidential oath of office.

Beginning in the early hours, Washington’s subway system was crammed with people making their way into the city to observe the inauguration.
