One-year â€œObamamaniaâ€ is reaching its culmination point. 44th President of the United States Barack Obama and Vice President Josef Biden will take their offices on January 20 after the inauguration ceremony ending the disputes and emotions.
Now preparations are continuing for Tuesday’s inauguration.
APA US bureau reports Barack Obamaâ€™s portraits and welcoming him slogans are hanged on the buildings at Pennsylvania Avenue, including Newseum Museum and Canadian embassy.

160 million dollars were spent for inauguration ceremony and organizers showed maximum accuracy in the inauguration preparations.
According to the traditions, Barack Obama and Jozef Biden together with their wives will attend praying ceremony in the church in the morning on January 20 and then will leave for the White House. They will take an oath before the Congress and organizers have already installed cathedras and seats for visitors, who will attend the ceremony in the Congress. Then Obama and Biden will walk toward the White House, accompanied by the solemn parade.
Two million people are expected to watch the ceremony. The preparations are not going without incidents. A black homeless man lies down on sidewalk and refused to leave the territory and nobody can disturb him, because the organizers have no authority to expel the man even under the pretext of inauguration.
