Chapter 201: To The Moon
It was the day he would officially take the office. There wasn't much to be excited about as he had already started to work as the president secretly.
But the official documents can only be signed after he takes the oath.
He came to the Capitol building. A huge crowd was gathered there. He couldn't believe that this many people could gather at that place. The secret service was focused on everyone's security except for him.
First, some NPC politicians came and gave their two cents about how great he was. Then it finally came to Alexander's speech. He didn't make it too long as it was a waste of time. But he still needed to make everyone happy who came to see him.
"Thank you for your support, everyone. The weather is very cold so I won't make it too long. I am going to take the highest administrative office in this country. Many responsibilities come with it as I will not only be responsible for this country but also many parts of the world. No matter what people say, America does have a lot of wealth that makes it very strong and we need to act responsibly with that kind of power.
"Tomorrow, we are going to take the first step for a better future. Tomorrow we will be launching a manned space mission to the moon. They will land there and live in the small habitat module for one week. They will look for the best place to start building our first moon colony.
"Currently, I and Tony were able to come up with a way to make cheaper electricity but if we are able to mine Helium 3 from the moon then we'll be able to make all our energy needs as cheap as tap water. So be sure to tune in tomorrow and witness history in the making."
He ended his speech and soon it came to taking the oath. "I do solemnly swear 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 and anyone in distress."
He added some words at the end. He wasn't just becoming the president for one country after all. He had the whole world in mind.
