The State of the Union Address

I think that when I watched the state of the Union Address I was surprised to feel disappointed and unsatisfied. I felt like Obama made a large wish list on what he hopes to accomplish in the country and provided no explanation for how he was going to make it happen. I would have preferred if he had said fewer goals but included more details on how he was going to accomplish the goals he has said out to achieve. But he was trying to please the majority and that definitely worked because he used his very general statements to please both parties. He definitely seemed to focus his attention toward clean energy and education. I thought that his ideas for improving the education system would be very beneficial to the countries future. Overall there were definitely some great ideas made and it was very well written, but I hope that there is follow through on these ideas.
I will say that I have seen the State of the Union addresses in the past and having the republicans and democrats all sitting intermixed gave a much more united front than in years past. This was definitely my favorite part of the address. It changed the entire vibe and feel of the speeches in a great way.
