Inaugural Address

Rutherford B. Hayes’s presidential campaign was fraught with drama, and a late acceptance (only a week before the inauguration) made the presidential hopeful’s speech even more interesting. During this speech, Hayes made many promises, especially revolving around race and the state of jobs during that time. Acknowledging that the change in political atmosphere connotated a change in the way the entire nation was run, Hayes promised to work toward a constructive change for the betterment of all Americans. He then asks his fellow citizens to join him in rejoicing over the unification of the two sides.
