Reported by: Dave McHugh
Last Update: 1/16/2009 11:23 am
The pending Presidential Inauguration of Barack Obama has had many people talking; excited about the historic moment and what it means for the country.

One local politician would certainly know what that means. Today on Good Morning Maryland @ 9, Jamie talked with former Baltimore city mayor, Kurt Schmoke, who has had practically a front-row seat to the rise of African-Americans in politics. He also talked about watching the election unfold and why it wasn't until the very last minute that he could admit to himself that Obama would win.
