Strip away all of the politics and all of contrived made-for-TV stuff of any inauguration, and there was a man who had fulfilled his dream, surrounded by his lovely and so very proud wife and family, in front of millions of people.

I’ll admit fighting back an "emotional reaction" or two. I'll also admit to being a little jealous: I wish I could call out the National Guard, the FBI, CIA and the Army as my girls were entering their teenage years.
“You want to date my daughter?” I would ask. “OK, but you have to be cleared by the Secret Service first. It’s just the rule.”
