He worked his way up from the Illinois State Senate to the US Senate and was officially sworn in as president on January 20, 2009.

President Obama does an exemplary job showing how this horrible event helped change America and get us where we are today. While honoring those that did not plan to sacrifice their lives, he spoke with a purpose…
