Changes to the Constitution

After the botching of the oath of office on Tuesday, not pointing fingers because I think the major issue was there was no practice ahead of time.  As I read the Constitution I realized that in the world of high tech and web 2.0, yea it is confusing.   Both John Roberts and Barack Obama could be at fault, but the answer is quite easy.  We incorporate tones, like on an automated answering system, and we would change the working to read more like a script:

Chief Justice:  I do solemnly swear
[tone] 
President: I do solemnly swear
[tone]
Chief Justice: that I will faithfully execute
[tone]
President: that I will faithfully execute
[tone]
Chief Justice: the Office of the President of the United States
[tone]
President: the Office of the President of the United States
[tone]
Chief Justice: and will to the best of my Ability
[tone]
President: and will to the best of my ability
[tone]
Chief Justice: Preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States
[tone]
President: Preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States


I'm sure these changes will pass a constitutional conventions without any major work.

Just my thoughts.
