He will be sworn in again at a public ceremony at the Capitol in Washington on Monday.
Joe Biden, the vice-president, was sworn in before his boss at an early morning ceremony at his official residence, before the two laid a wreath at the Tomb of the Unknowns at Arlington National Ceremony.
Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor – picked by Mr Obama to be the first Hispanic judge to sit on the High Court in his first term – made her own slice of history by leading Biden as he took the oath.
