Chapter 642: Oath of Office! (First Update!)

The staff listened to this strange sentence and repeated it in his mind, but no matter how he repeated it, he switched from English to French.

Then he switched from French to German, or Latin.

He switched several languages ​​in a row, but found that he could not speak the flavor of Odebiao.

The language used by this president was probably the African language that his talent awakened.

If that was the case, then he really couldn't speak it.

After a little complaint in his mind, the staff raised his head again, looked at the person by the window with burning eyes, and asked softly:

"Mr. President, tomorrow is the day you have chosen to publish the inauguration ceremony. Do you need me to help you review the manuscript?"

The words were faint, and after they fell quietly, only the sound of rain outside the window could be heard.

The sound of rain was soft and pleasant, but it was also a little chilly, making people want to leave.

By the window, listening to the staff's words, Odebiao shook his head gently.

Tomorrow is January 25th. As the president, although he is a spokesperson pushed out by some people, he still has little autonomy.

The choice of the date of the inauguration ceremony is one of them.

According to the normal election process of America, the general election begins on November 5th every year, and the votes are counted the next day until the last state and the last vote are counted. The entire election activity is officially completed.

After that, until the end of January of the second year, it is the time for the new president to take the oath of office.

It is the time for the two presidents to hand over.

But this time, because America completely unlocked the gun battle suit, other candidates died and were injured.

It also made him, the lucky guy, pick up a big bargain.

Although he has begun to exercise the duties of the president, he still lacks a legitimate reason. After all, strictly speaking, he is not the president of America now.

Now, he needs to formally hold the inauguration ceremony and swear allegiance to America before he can officially become the president of America.

And tomorrow, January 25, 2005.

It was a good day that he had finally found after many calculations by finding several magicians.

Thinking of this, Odebiao returned to his desk, opened the drawer, and took out a piece of bright yellow paper from the drawer.

On this bright yellow paper, strange patterns were carved with vermilion paint, and there were also some iron-painted and silver-hooked words.

Chinese words.

The vermilion paint, combined with the bright yellow paper, gave him a faint sense of mystery when held in his hand.

Compared with the magic that only existed in Africa and was passed down by word of mouth, although it did not have a good relationship with China.

But Odebiao still felt that this thing was reliable.

As he read it, he read it out unconsciously.

"January 25, 2005, Tuesday, it is suitable for offering sacrifices, bathing, repairing walls, plugging holes, and killing ants."

The inauguration ceremony was a kind of sacrifice.

After reading it, he stuffed the yellow paper back into the drawer and locked it.

When he raised his eyes again, there was only determination in his eyes.

As soon as tomorrow's inauguration ceremony is over, he will be the president of America.

The official president!

His eyes fell on the staff opposite him, and he said softly: "Winston, you go down first."

"Okay!" Winston got the order, turned around and left without looking back.

Ten minutes later, Odebiao also opened the door and slowly walked out of the room.

…………

Seven o'clock in the morning.

The drizzle that has lasted for almost a week finally stopped, and the residents of the District of Columbia who have been trapped in the rain finally walked out of their warm homes.

Most people continue to work, and a few people who are free or do not go to work directly choose to go to the Washington National Cathedral to watch today's inauguration ceremony.

However, they move too slowly, and when they arrive at the Washington National Cathedral.

They can only see the motorcade going away.

That damn black president has already attended the church service.

Come with excitement, leave with disappointment.

Those who come to attend the ceremony have no choice but to follow the crowd and go to Capitol Hill together.

Last year's presidential election was too magical, and a lot of people died.

Now, if a few more people die at the presidential inauguration, this day will be interesting.

Slowly, the roads outside the Capitol were crowded with people who came to watch the ceremony.

They were Republican supporters, Democratic diehards, and of course, some people were idlers who were just watching for fun.

They just wanted to see if the president would be messed with today.

At 10 o'clock in the morning, a motorcade drove from the direction of the Washington National Cathedral, slowly moving forward on the straight avenue and slowly passing through the crowd.

Just as the motorcade was about to enter the territory of Capitol Hill, a noise came from a distance.

The sound came from far away and got louder and louder.

"Drive out the niggers! Reject the black president! Let an American be the president of America."

"The president of America can only be an American."

"America belongs to Americans, black people go back to Africa."

"Go back! Go back to your Africa to play in the mud!"

"Go back to your Africa, go back to your primitive jungle, you are not welcome here, the president of America should be white."

The shouts slowly advanced, but were soon stopped by the police officers who were maintaining law and order, and stopped outside the car.

The slowly advancing convoy also entered the fork at this time, the front car passed, and the president's car slowly stopped.

Under the public's gaze, Odebiao slowly lowered the car window, revealed a smiling face from behind the bulletproof glass, and smiled at the people in the distance.

A black face, a mouthful of white teeth, a very clear and gentle smile.

After smiling for a while, he slowly closed the car window, started the car again, and drove slowly into the Capitol Hill along the road.

The motorcade circled the Garfield Circle, then turned left and headed for the Peace Monument.

Stopped in front of the Peace Monument again.

Odebiao and another lucky man, who replaced the previous vice presidential candidate Rams, got off their respective cars.

After standing in front of the Peace Monument for a while, he turned around and walked step by step to the opposite side of the American Capitol, towards the scene where the inauguration ceremony had been arranged.

The two walked very slowly, and the people behind them also walked very slowly.

The team led by the two walked for a full 10 minutes for a distance of less than 500 meters, which was slightly faster than a snail.

Standing in the open space opposite the Capitol, Odebiao turned his head to look at Rams, smiled faintly, and said:

"We are so lucky!"

Ramus is a white man who looks to be in his 50s, 1.8 meters tall and thin, with a pair of glasses on his face and a dark blue suit, looking very elegant and refined.

At this moment, he suddenly heard Odebiao's words, and he couldn't help but touch his face awkwardly.

As a vice presidential candidate, he is naturally not a flowery one, and he has some level.

But this level is limited, and he is neither high nor low.

If he is not the tallest among the short people, the Democratic Party will not choose him.

He can be called lucky to be the vice president.

But according to the information he knows, the black man in front of him can't be described as a simple luck to be able to become president.

That is really based on strength and bullets.

Thinking of this, he quickly showed a flattering smile, and moved his body behind Odebiao, looking like Odebiao is the first.

Odebiao was very happy about his action.

Although he was a spokesperson, he would be the real president after the inauguration ceremony. Among the more than 6 billion people on the entire Blue Star, he was considered to be above a billion people.

In this case, it was normal to have a temper.

Nodding his head gently to Rams, Odebiao took another step and slowly walked into the Capitol.

The booth for the inauguration ceremony was opposite the Capitol and opposite the monument to General Ulysses Grant.

In the large open space, a stage was temporarily built with equipment.

In the center of the stage was a small podium, which was covered with red velvet cloth, on which was a small microphone and a Bible.

The priest who had just participated in the worship ceremony in the cathedral, as well as the House of Representatives, the Senate, and other celebrities from all walks of life, were all ready on the stage.

Odebiao and Rams stopped about 10 meters in front of the stage. Instead of moving forward, they stood there, waiting for the next activity.

Because according to the general process, after the morning prayer ceremony, they will go to Capitol Hill, and then the outgoing president will accompany the president-elect to the stage, the outgoing president will give a speech, the president-elect will talk, and then the swearing-in ceremony will begin.

But the problem is...

Bush's grave grass has grown.

This process naturally needs to be handled.

Under the spotlight, a cardinal walked to the podium, held the Bible in both hands, and began to recite.

After talking for several minutes, the cardinal stepped back, slowly came to Odebiao, put his hands on his shoulders, and began to recite again.

After a long while, the other party nodded with satisfaction: "Mr. Odebiao, President Bush has conveyed his expectations to you, now it's your turn."

Hearing this, Odebiao nodded his head lightly, then stepped aside, leaving the way for Rams to move forward.

This is the third step of the inauguration ceremony.

When the elected president and vice president take the oath, the vice president should step forward first to announce the inauguration.

Nodding to Odebiao, Rams stepped onto the stage with steady steps, and at this time, there was one more person beside the podium in the center of the stage.

Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of America!

Seeing Rams, he calmly pushed the Constitution and the Bible forward and in front of Rams.

Standing in front of the podium, Rams placed one hand on the Constitution and the other on the Bible, and began to swear loudly:

"I, Rams A. Grant, solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of America against all internal and external enemies, I will loyally uphold the truth, and in the name of freedom, I will abandon all my inner reservations, never evade my duties, and perform my duties until death. May God help me."

His loud voice was transmitted through the microphone and reached the ears of the onlookers on the grass in front.

There were too many twists and turns in this election, which frightened many Americans.

And his loud oath was like a shot of cardiotonic, piercing the buttocks of these Americans fiercely, giving them the courage to face the next life.

After reading the oath, Ramsay nodded to the Chief Justice, turned around and stood aside, holding the back of his left hand with his right hand and placing it on his chest.

After the Vice President finished taking the oath, it was the President's turn.

At this moment, all the cameras fell on Odebiao.

At the moment the camera locked on him, he stepped forward with his left leg and took a step forward.

Under the camera, he had a faint smile on his face and stood tall like a pine tree. If he wasn't too dark, he would look like a modest gentleman.

His steps were steady and slow.

It took him a long time to walk to the podium.

He held the Constitution and the Bible with both hands. He did not swear the oath immediately, but looked back and glanced behind him, and then looked forward.

After scanning the whole scene, he opened his mouth and began to read the oath.

Compared with the vice president's oath, the president's oath was much shorter.

There was only a simple sentence.

"I, Hussein Odebiao, solemnly swear that I will faithfully perform the duties of the President of the United States and do my best to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States."

As soon as the words fell, the whole audience burst into applause, and the applause was like a tsunami, one wave after another.

Rams in the crowd had no expression. He just looked at these people silently, as if he was an outsider.

Odebiao raised his hands in front of the podium, gently pressed down to suppress the applause, and then said loudly:

"According to the procedure, the next is the new president's inaugural speech."

"But I have already explained my governing philosophy on New Year's Eve."

"Therefore, I don't need to say much here. I just want to tell you that I will exercise the presidential power strictly in accordance with my governing philosophy."

"I will bring changes to everyone in 4 years and let everyone know that it is not wrong to elect me!"

After a short speech, the outdoor part of the inauguration ceremony was completed.

A group of people, escorted by security personnel, walked around the pool in the middle and slowly walked towards Capitol Hill.

It was getting late, and the next thing was the luncheon for the inauguration ceremony.

After dinner, there were parades and dances in the evening. How could you be energetic without eating after a busy day?

In addition, the next lunch was when President Odebiao really began to exercise his power.

At this lunch, he would divide the important positions of various departments in America.

Only by doing so can the Democratic Party firmly grasp America in the next 4, 8, or even 16 years.

Walk into the restaurant.

Everyone looked at Odbiao eagerly, with naked desire for power in their eyes.

Under the gaze of everyone, Odbiao walked to the table in the middle, and then walked to the main seat of the table. Instead of sitting down, he raised his hand and pointed to a group of people standing at the edge of the table.

"Ramus A. Grant, you are the vice president, my right-hand man, sit next to me."

"Ford B. Garfield, you will be the central commander of this election, and you will be the speaker of the House of Representatives, sit on my right."

"Albert Hadley, you invest money, put away your yellow jacket, and sit on the left of Ramus."

"Ster A. Cleveland, you are the mainstay of the party, take the position of leader of the Democratic Party..."

"Thomas Wood Wilson..."
