Stan Ott, Vienna: “My guess is that we are in fairly uncharted waters in the sense that it’s been a long time since we had a president and congress that are more on the same page, but whose views are not aligned with where we have been. So while there’s hope that some things will align well, I also feel some real concern that what you might feel are the little people are going to find themselves on the short end of the stick. So you just wait and see. I hope that doesn’t happen but I have a concern about that.
But the inauguration for me. no matter who the president is, is a great American moment. I mean it’s the transfer of power, it’s the reminder of who we are as a people. This particular election, although many, a lot of people are excited and a lot of folks are fearful or worried, yet somehow in all of that particularly on inauguration day, I just pray that the good lord is with us and gives us a sense of future. It’s very interesting in scripture we are asked first of all to pray for people in authority. That it might be well with us and that really is my prayer about tomorrow.”
