Your Own Presidential Inauguration

President-elect Barak Obama will officially be sworn into office this Tuesday and with any new president comes much hoopla, called inauguration. There will be balls, live music, dancing, food, other parties, speeches, and more. This year, inauguration will cost over 150 million dollars. Wow!

Pretend that you were the one elected to be our country's next president. If you could plan your inauguration, what would it be like? Some questions to consider are: Where would you host it? What musicians would be there? What type of food would you have (any company from McDonald's to Red Lobster to the most expensive catering company could cater it)? What would you wear? What would your speech be about? Would there be any fun decorations, giveaways, fireworks, etc....?
