The first inauguration, that of George Washington, took place on April 30, 1789. All subsequent (regular) inaugurations from 1793 until 1933, were held on March 4, the day of the year on which the federal government began operations under the U.S. Constitution in 1789. The exception to this pattern was those years in which March 4 fell on a Sunday. When it did, the public inauguration ceremony would take place on Monday, March 5.

That's why I've never been hot on the "United States corporation" thing. It seems like a pointless legal possibility that, for all intents and purposes, doesn't matter. Patriots won't give up the fight for our liberty and Constitution just because we're somehow not technically the founded United States, and the wicked won't suddenly drop their plans just because that fake U.S. was abolished.
