Saturday (January 17, 2009), on his way to Washington D.C. for his inauguration, President-elect Barack Obama stopped in Baltimore, Maryland. He was greeted by Maryland's Governor Martin O'Malley and a crowd of well-wishers. As he welcomed the President-elect to Baltimore, Gov. O'Malley offered a blessing -- a reading of John O'Donohue's, For One Who Holds Power from To Bless the Space Between Us (entitled, Benedictus in the U.K.)
