家园 not exactly

Here's the oath as written:

"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."

But what John Roberts says is "I Barack Hussein Obama, do solemnly swear, that I will execute the office of President to the united states faithfully."

Obama begins to repeat after Roberts, saying, "That I will execute..." then he stops, kind of smiles. At this point, the penny drops for Roberts, who begins to repeat the correct order of words: "Faithfully the office of the President of the United States." There's some talking over each other at that point. The rest of the oath goes smoothly. Then Roberts asks: "So help you God?"

"So help me God," Obama replies, but the last part isn't officially part of the oath either, it's usually up to the President to decide if he should say "so help me God."
