Obama’s Do-Over

After the flub heard around the world, President Barack Obama has taken the oath of office. Again. Chief Justice John Roberts delivered the oath to Obama on Wednesday night at the White House – a rare do-over. The surprise moment came in response to Tuesday’s much-noticed stumble, when Roberts got the words of the oath a little off, which prompted Obama to do so, too.

Here’s a bit of history – two other previous presidents have repeated the oath because of similar issues, Calvin Coolidge and Chester A. Arthur.
