"We do big things" President Obama

President Barack Obama spoke to America last night as he gave his annual State of the Union address. Obama talked about the economic changes we have overcome the past few years as well as making his case for future government actions.

The economy is on course for economic disaster if there is no serious action to gain control of the budget deficit. Many Americans have felt the financial burden for many years now due to the shaky economy. In response to President Obama's State of the Union address, House Budget Committee Chairman, Paul Ryan said spending cuts need to start immediately to increase the governments ability to borrow to pay its bills this upcoming spring.

President Obama addressed the necessary issues the country was waiting to hear such as emphasis on education and innovation to declaring the "era of big government" to be over. He also talked about security, and grounding the budget deficit through less spending.

Also, Republicans and Democrats were ordered in a different seating chart, where they sat together. The idea of the seating chart addresses the need for Democrats and Republicans to work together on the economy's problems.

According to online campaign tracking statistics, Obama has kept 124 of his campaign promises and has broken 38.

Obama closed the State of the Union address by stating "We do big things. The idea of America endures. Our destiny remains our choice. It is because of the people our future is hopeful, our journey goes forward, and the state of our union is strong."
