LAD #22- Wilson's First Inaugural

On March 4th, 1913, Woodrow Wilson stood before the Americans and delivered his first inaugural address. Beginning by pointing that when the house of Representatives became Democratic, the whole government changed. Wilson says that he wants to answer how the Democrats will change the government. He talks about how life is great, and how America built a wonderful government that has stood for a long time. However, with the positives Wilson is also quick to point out the flaws in America. He notes the importance of sanitary laws, labor-friendly laws, and pure food laws. Finally, Wilson concludes by calling all the honest men out there to help further his cause for rebuilding the nation and help usher it forward.
