Inaugural Addresses of the Presidents, Volume 2: Theodore Roosevelt (1905) to Joseph R. Biden Jr. (2021)

I do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will faithfully execute the Office of the President of the United States, and will, to the best of my ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.

With these words, every U.S. president has become a living part of American history. Equally monumental as taking the Executive Oath of Office, but as varied and unique as each President, is the inaugural address. Inaugural Addresses of the Presidents of the United States provides many memorable and inspiring passages, and their history is as interesting as it is important.

Biden Jr. These addresses constitute a collection of American leadership, highlighting the policy and vision that surround the institution of the U.S. Presidency.

Truman, Dwight D. Eisenhower, John F. Kennedy, Lyndon Baines Johnson, Richard Milhous Nixon, Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan, George Bush, William Jefferson Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack H.
