I didn't see it, but if he did,,,

he has already screwed up the very first thing that a President does.

Roberts screwed it up from what I’m told.

Chief Justice Roberts didn't read the oath correctly and Obama stopped recognizing the error.

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

Roberts initially stated "that I will execute the office of President of the United States faithfully"

First Obama started reciting the first line too soon when Roberts paused. Then Roberts messed up the second line by transposing words, which threw Obama off again.

OK, I did the research, lets be clear on this:

1. Obama jumped in before Roberts was done the first line: Fault Obama

2. Roberts put “faithfully” in wrong spot and Obama stopped ans looked confused: Fault Roberts

3. Obama studders a tiny bit on another line: Fault Obama

The big flub was by Roberts but Obama did mess up a bit.

The fault lies solely with Chief Justice Roberts.

John Roberts said “I Barack Hussein Obama...” and Obama started to repeat it as Roberts continued “... do solemnly swear.” He caught himself, waited for Roberts to finish, and then said it again.

Then Roberts said “That I will execute the office of President of the United States faithfully.” when it should have been “faithfully execute.” Obama paused after execute, and Roberts corrected himself (sort of-— he said “execute faithfully”), Obama repeated the first version he said, and it went on.

Very true.

He was well prepared just like he is to be the 44th President of the United States!

No, there was another thread posted with video, and it was clearly Roberts who screwed up—Obama just waited for him to correct himself.

yes, yes he did

But I’d bet he’ll blame Justice Roberts - the Almighty is above human error

instead of “defend the Constitution”
did he say “ammend the Constitution” ?

Both sides are right on this. Obama jumped in too fast on the first line at :40. Then Roberts put faithfully in wrong spot starting at :47. Then Obama mumbles “And will to...best” at 1:00 instead of “And will to the best”.
