Seating arrangement[edit]

I don't have a source for this, but the 1981 Inaugural started the seating arrangement of having the incoming President & Vice President seated next to each other [on one side of the podium] & the outgoing President & Vice President seated next to each other [on the otherside of the podium]. Before this, the outgoing & incoming Presidents sat together; the outgoing & incoming Vice Presidents sat together. GoodDay (talk) 16:41, 26 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oldest to be Sworn In until Biden?[edit]

The way this article's lede currently reads, it states:

"At 69 years, 349 days of age on Inauguration Day, Reagan was the oldest person to assume the presidency until Joe Biden in 2021."

Donald Trump was 70 years, 7 months and 6 days old on the day he was sworn in. This statement clearly needs to be fixed.

This [edit] from 1 Feb 2021, more than THREE YEARS AGO had been an effort to fix this error. So it is obvious that something in the process here is broken. --Concord19 (talk) 14:38, 25 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
