00:0-1	Okay , So every four years , there's this day
00:03	, you may have heard of it before . Maybe
00:04	not . It's called inauguration day , hmm , inauguration
00:10	day ? Well , the first question we have to
00:13	answer is what is inauguration day ? Well , inauguration
00:17	day is the day when the president of the United
00:20	States begins his or her term in office . A
00:26	presidential term lasts four years , meaning the President of
00:30	the United States serves the people for four years at
00:34	a time . And that is why inauguration day happens
00:38	every four years , no matter what . Mhm .
00:42	So what actually happens on inauguration day ? Well ,
00:47	there is a big ceremony that takes place in Washington
00:51	, D.C. , the capital of the United States .
00:54	It takes place on January 20 , unless if January
00:58	20 is a Sunday , then they moved the public
01:01	celebration to the following day January 21 . This happened
01:06	most recently in 2013 . President Barack Obama had his
01:12	second inauguration on monday january 21st . But usually the
01:17	inauguration is on january 20th . But where in Washington
01:22	, D . C . Is the ceremony itself Throughout
01:25	the history of the United States , The majority of
01:28	inaugurations have taken place at the US . Capitol Building
01:32	seen here . What an amazing building . And at
01:35	the time we are making this video . The inauguration
01:38	has happened at the US . Capitol Building every inauguration
01:43	day since 1945 . Speaking of 1945 that was the
01:50	year of the last inauguration of the 32nd President of
01:54	the United States . President franklin D Roosevelt , interesting
01:58	fact about him . Did you know president franklin ?
02:01	D Roosevelt had more inaugurations than any other U .
02:05	S . President . He had four inaugurations . The
02:09	reason for that is because franklin D Roosevelt was the
02:12	first and only president to ever serve more than two
02:16	terms . He served as president for four terms .
02:20	Which is why he had four inaugurations . His record
02:23	will never be broken either because now no president is
02:28	allowed to serve more than two terms . That's the
02:31	limit now from the now , this is really cool
02:37	. The greatest part of the ceremony is when the
02:41	president takes what is called the oath of office .
02:45	The oath of office is a serious promise the president
02:49	makes in front of the whole country . This often
02:53	happens around noon on inauguration day , the president makes
02:59	this promise . I do solemnly swear that I will
03:03	faithfully execute the office of the President of the United
03:07	States and will to the best of my ability preserve
03:12	, protect and defend the constitution of the United States
03:19	. After making these promises , the president usually makes
03:23	a speech called the inaugural address . This is a
03:27	chance for the president to share what he or she
03:30	plans to do during his or her presidential term and
03:35	let the people of our country know what the president's
03:38	vision is for the United States . The vice president
03:44	has an oath to take as well . Making promises
03:47	in front of the whole country . That's what makes
03:51	inauguration day so special . It is a day of
03:55	promises . The promise means I will be committed .
04:00	I will be here for the people of the United
04:03	States and follow the constitution , which is the highest
04:06	law in the land . Inauguration day is an important
04:11	day . A day of promises . On january 20th
04:14	. Unless it is a sunday . The President of
04:17	the United States and the Vice president of the United
04:20	States are sworn in , usually at the U .
04:23	S . Capitol building , making a commitment to this
04:26	country and the people who live in it . It
04:29	happens every four years and marks the beginning of a
04:33	president's term in office . No one can take the
04:36	office of the President of the United States without making
04:40	the promises of inauguration day . I know inauguration day
04:45	has a weird name . Let's be honest about that
04:47	. Okay , inauguration that's a strange word . But
04:51	inauguration day is an amazing occasion . If you have
04:55	the opportunity to watch an inauguration day ceremony , be
04:59	sure to do that . Watch the President of the
05:02	United States take the oath of office , making the
05:05	promises that he or she must follow in order to
05:09	serve the great people of this country . Listen to
05:12	the inaugural address . The speech that the president makes
05:16	inauguration day is an important time for the United States
05:21	. It happens every four years . So if you
05:23	miss it , hey , you could always wait for
05:26	years . That's a while . That's a while .
05:28	How old will you be then ? Wow . Or
05:32	you can just re watch it if you miss it
05:34	. Yeah . You know , you could always do
05:35	that too well if you are watching this on inauguration
