JANUARY 20TH, 2017
I, Megan Margo O’Brien, “do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.”
Yes, indeed……here I stand in front of thousands of Americans and our Nation’s Capital on this glorious January day in my navy cashmere dress coat, Giorgio Armani navy blue suit, light blue silk blouse and lovely Jimmy Choo heels, the first female President of the United States of America. That’s right, finally after 43 male Presidents, the 45th President of the United States of America is a 55 year old Caucasian woman of Irish, Dutch descent. Go figure! As I stand here before millions of people watching all over the world, the adrenalin is pumping through my veins so fast I think my heart might explode. I have goose bumps under my clothes covering every inch of my 5’ 8” body. And the goose bumps aren’t from being cold; no, they’re from the pure excitement of this glorious moment. I’m here representing American women who have fought for or waited patiently for their voices to be heard and to have the same rights that men have. This is indeed, a great victory for women, to have one of their own elected to the highest office in the land. Here I stand, my auburn hair glimmering in the sun while my blue eyes fight back tears of happiness. It’s been a long time in coming, this victory for women; but this great day has finally arrived! God bless the U.S.A., and its voters!
After taking the oath of office, I approach the podium; looking over the crowd of thousands and think to myself……. how in God’s name did I make it all the way to the White House? I guess the best way to explain how I’ve achieved this monumental feat is to start from the beginning.
