With Presidential Inauguration 2013 just a few days away, this infographic provides a detailed look at past inaugurations from a variety of angles.
On Monday, thousands of people will line the streets of Washington to watch President Barack Obama get sworn in for his second term as the President of the United States. While temperatures will be low, morale will be high during this glorious moment for Obama supporters. Obama's first inauguration enjoyed a star-studded audience that included names like Jay-z and Oprah.
This infographic gives an idea of how much winning the presidency costs from one term to the next. For instance, in 2004 George W. Bush beat Al Gore and spent just over $400 million. In 2008, it took three times that amount for Barack Obama to win.
