<h3>Definitions</h3>


<p>"<u>first sentence</u>" of an inaugural address is the first sentence that is not <u>entirely</u> comprised of an acknowledgement of dignitaries in attendance.&nbsp;The first sentence is that which contains only text of the address, or contains both acknowledgments and text.&nbsp;For example, President Bush’s 2005 inaugural address began with, “Vice President Cheney, Mr. Chief Justice, President Carter, President Bush, President Clinton, members of the United States Congress, reverend clergy, distinguished guests, fellow citizens:”&nbsp;For purposes of this puzzle, this is <u>not</u> the “first sentence” - the next sentence in the address is.&nbsp;On the other hand, President Bush’s 2001 inaugural address began, “President Clinton, distinguished guests and my fellow citizens, the peaceful transfer of authority is rare in history, yet common in our country.”&nbsp;For purposes of this puzzle, this sentence <u>is</u> the “first sentence” of that inaugural address as it has both “acknowledgements” and text.</p>

<p>"<u>filled the seat</u>" of a Supreme Court Justice refers to the respective lineage of each of the nine current seats on the Supreme Court.&nbsp;For example, in 1991, Justice Clarence Thomas “filled the seat” held by Justice Thurgood Marshall.&nbsp;As Marhsall had, in 1967, “filled the seat” held by Justice Tom Clark, it follows that Thomas also “filled the seat once held” by Clark.</p>

<p>"<u>major party</u>" means Democratic, Republican, Whig, or a party whose presidential nominee won the most or second-most electoral votes in a presidential election.</p>

<p>"<u>ordinal value</u>" means the order of appearance in a relevant list, <em>i.e.</em>, 1<sup>st</sup>, 2<sup>nd</sup>, 3<sup>rd</sup>…</p>

<p>"<u>prime number closest to</u>" – a prime number is “closest to” another number if it is the prime number that is the fewest integers away from the other number, regardless if the prime is higher or lower than the number in question.</p>
