Was one of the operating accounts Barack Obama's administration should be a mirror or how to avoid the work of the previous Democratic administration, and Bill Clinton. In his State of the Union last night, at least, Barack Obama became the Clintonian, at least in style. SOTU speech, such as Clinton, Obama was not long (more than one hour only), and less organized around the narrative from the point by point list of taxes, and priorities for immigration to education, and much more. Clinton when he made these speeches, which tend to be criticized by critics as a "laundry lists" of voters and the public responded to them much better than the experts in the polls.
If that were true, and Obama, in the polarized election year, we will have to see. But the list of priorities and gave a Clintonian in the framework of Obama. While I had the speech SOTU attic from the beginning to the end and one of his speeches during the election campaign in 2008, was supported by the higher taxes of the Group of the U.S. Navy to go out Osama bin Laden in the spring, Obama is using as an example of Americans put aside differences in order to achieve the goal.
The opening and closing it felt like a deliberate him call 2004 speech to the Democratic convention, which he said there was "American network" and "Blue America" here, said: "When you put the uniform, which doesn 't if you are black or white, Latino or Asian, liberal or conservative, rich or poor, gay or straight, and when going into battle, to find someone next to you, or any mission. "
It seemed a description of a familiar theme for Obama and the United States to find their commonalities rather than be separated by their differences. Also, of course, the president said bin Laden had died, and this has not exactly hurt in an election year. The letter was full of consciousness in the elections and the divisions and differences that have stalled in Congress, legislation was talking about (the emphasis is on differences, and perhaps better than any word in the speech, and reductions repeated Mitch McConnell silent frowning stone, Eric Cantor, the platform facing the laser).
Thus, while praising the ability of Americans to join the one hand, and called again and again to a certain group of Americans in the room to send the legislation to his desk. Also ran a large part of his economic message to America is not in the room. When the secretary said Warren Buffett at the meeting, noting that President billionaire pay lower tax rate because it makes the rules on capital gains, you may have also said "Cough! Mitt Romney! Coughing" and said he echoed directly Romney "class war" rhetoric away from the the podium: "When Americans speak of the people and I pay my fair share of taxes, it is because they envy the rich," said he, with a touch of contempt in the "envy" word: "It is because they understand that when it comes to tax breaks and do not need that the country does not can afford, or adds to the deficit, or any other person to pay the difference. "
Common cause or not, red or blue or purple, and this was a political speech in the political thinking for years, Obama said he would be one battle. (Although there are moments of humor, as an aside on the list of milk took slowly groan and one of the most worthy, "spilled milk" jokes in history.) And to respond to the Republican and the Republican Party was trying figure of the party leaders to persuade the presidential election, Gov. Indiana, Mitch Daniels. Daniels did not seem to dream of a dynamic candidate, speaking in a tone cold, while facing the camera sideways, at an angle of 30 degrees. (For over spilled milk Obama, who was a glass of warm milk.), But the answer is to work in general, unpleasant, and usually handed over to the empty room in silence, and Daniels, at least they were bad not forget, so it is likely to be followed in time later, as did Governor Bobby Jindal, JJ performance a few years ago, and kept his word clearly deficit hawks in the Republican Party and the Government of a small economic issues.
