Guest guest Posted January 22, 2009 Report Share Posted January 22, 2009 previous entry- 'I would think this was all null and void now because of the fact that the Oath of Office was said wrong at the noon swearing in. They re-did it later in the day to make it official.' Obama was President of the U.S. at 12 noon on the 20th of January, whether he was sworn in by then or not, as that is when the old prisdent and VP loose office. It is written in the constituiton, amendment 20. 'The terms of the President and Vice President shall end at noon on the 20th day of January, and the terms of Senators and Representatives at noon on the 3d day of January, of the years in which such terms would have ended if this article had not been ratified; and the terms of their successors shall then begin.'
