- Description:
- President Barack Obama delivers his second State of the Union address to a joint session of Congress. Obama talks about civility and the need for legislators to work together to insure that the U.S. can compete in a rapidly changing global economy. To sharpen the country's competitive edge, he calls for increased spending on education, infrastructure, clean energy technology, and high-speed Internet, while at the same time, in a nod to the burgeoning deficit, proposes a five-year freeze on domestic discretionary spending and a massive, cost cutting reorganization of the federal government. He also discuses health care, the tax code, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, national security, gays in the military, and immigration. Obama closes by saying that America is still a place where a person can rise from humble beginnings to achieve great things.

- Description:
- President Barack H. Obama delivers his fourth State of the Union address before a joint session of Congress. He recounts the accomplishments of the previous year including the death of Osama bin Ladin and the end of combat in Iraq. Obama says, "We can either settle for a country where a shrinking number of people do really well while a growing number of Americans barely get by, or we can restore an economy where everyone gets a fair shot, and everyone does their fair share, and everyone plays by the same set of rules." He promises to continue fighting against the polices that brought on the 2008 economic crisis and proposes lowering taxes on companies that choose to stay in the U.S. and to cease rewarding companies that move operations and assets off shore. He also talks about immigration, education, energy, tax policy, the deficit, campaign financing and lobbying, the Afghan War, and revolution throughout the Middle East.
