HE HAD SENT A NOTE TO DONALD

TRUMP EARLIER EVEN BEFORE HE WAS

ADMITTED TO THE HOSPITAL AND

SAID I'M NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO

BE AT THE INAUGURATION BECAUSE

MY DOCTORS TELL ME SITTING OUT

THERE IN THE COLD MIGHT, QUOTE,

PUT ME SIX FEET UNDER, END

QUOTE.

SO WHAT WE HAVE TODAY IS FOUR

OUT OF FIVE FORMER PRESIDENTS

ATTENDING THE INAUGURATION.

>> AND JUST FOR THE RECORD IT'S

ABOUT 44 DEGREES IN WASHINGTON.

RAIN HAS BEEN EXPECTED, BUT SO

FAR IT'S HOLDING OFF.

HAD SAID HE WAS COMING.

UNTIL HE WAS TAKEN ILL COUPLE

DAYS AGO.

OF COURSE IT'S BEEN A STEADY

STREAM OF PEOPLE ARRIVING

THROUGHOUT THE MORNING, BUT NOW

YOU CAN SEE THE MOTORCADE, THE

PRESIDENT AND FUTURE PRESIDENT

AND THE ENTOURAGE.

WE SEE MELANIA HERE, THE FUTURE

FIRST LADY.

AND OTHERS ARE ALL ARRIVING TO

GO AND TAKE THEIR POSITIONS

WHERE PRESIDENT OBAMA WILL TURN

OVER THOSE REIGNS OF POWER.

AND PRESIDENT-ELECT TRUMP WILL

BECOME PRESIDENT.

>> YOU KNOW, SCOTT, THE

INAUGURATIONS UP UNTIL RONALD

REAGAN CAME TO TOWN WERE HELD ON

THIS SIDE OF THE CAPITOL.

AND RONALD REAGAN BEING AN OLD

MOVIE ACTOR AND HIS AIDE, THEY

CAME UP TO SORT OF SCOPE THINGS

OUT AS THEY WERE GETTING READY

FOR THE INAUGURATION AND THEY

SAID, WELL WAIT A MINUTE, THE

GOOD PICTURE IS ON THE OTHER

SIDE OF THE CAPITOL ON THE WEST

SIDE OF THE CAPITOL.

AND FOR THAT REASON THEY STARTED

TO START HOLDING IT ON THE WEST

SIDE OF THE CAPITOL.

AND SINCE REAGAN THAT'S WHERE

IT'S BEEN.

AND IT IS A MUCH BETTER PICTURE.

IT'S A MAGNIFICENT PICTURE

BECAUSE YOU CAN LOOK ALL THE WAY

DOWN THE MALL TO THE WASHINGTON

MONUMENT AND THE LINCOLN

MEMORIAL.

HERE YOU HAVE THE

PRESIDENT-ELECT AND THE

PRESIDENT FOR A FEW MORE MINUTES

BARACK OBAMA MAKING THEIR WAY

NOW UP TO THE STANDS.

SAW PRESIDENT OBAMA, THE 44th

PRESIDENT, ENTER WITH THE

SOON-TO-BE 45th PRESIDENT OF THE

UNITED STATES, DONALD TRUMP,

WITH BOTH THE CONGRESSIONAL

LEADERSHIP WITH BOTH THE HOUSE

AND SENATE.

THEY WILL BE ANNOUNCED ALONG

WITH THEIR FAMILIES ON THE WEST

FRONT OF THE CAPITOL.

WE WILL SEE THAT SHORTLY.

ONE PIECE OF INFORMATION TO PASS

ON, THE END OF THE OBAMA ERA IN

THE WHITE HOUSE WAS MARKED BY

VALERIE JARRETT TURNING OFF THE

LIGHTS, IT IS SAID.

AND NOW BEGINS WHAT IS CALLED

ORGANIZED CHAOS AT THE WHITE

HOUSE WHERE THEY'RE DOING

EVERYTHING FROM REMOVING THE

HARDEST THING FOR THEM ALL TO

GET USED TO.

WILL HELP ME.

THAT HE WILL GIVE ME THE

STRENGTH AND GUIDANCE TO DO THIS

JOB AND DO IT RIGHT.

FOR ME TOO.

A FATHER LEANING ON HIS SON AT

THAT MOMENT IN 1932.

FAMILY, NOT JUST FOR A NEW
