State of the Union 2011 feat. Barack Obama

Think about everything he's aiming for. Then ask your self about the one factor that matters the most when fulfilling goals: money. Where is the money going to come from? As far as I remember, we are growing in debt because of failed things such as the bailout.

I admit Obama made a spectacular appearance, and really emphasized the need for bipartisan legislation because nothing positive gets down when houses of Congress always disagree for a bill to represent their party or their people. Like always, his charismatic personality truly sets a stage ready to be rocked.

So Obama's speech was generalized around, "Winning the Future" whereas he should really be focusing on boosting our economy back up. Though he mention that the economy has been rising and that jobs have been created, unfortunately the unemployment rate is still up at around 9% according to the Obama administration. Furthermore, Obama stated that in his speech he wanted to research more more into technology advances to surpass countries like China. All of these things cost a substantial amount of money, and as everyone should know, we are in debt trillions or somewhere around that figure.

Is the president aiming for the perfect world of Utopia with education and energy? By giving states incentives if the teachers get their student's scores up, the president is borderline controlling education. While I agree and disagree that education is a states issue, I agree with Obama when he talked about the importance of an education. Nowadays, many people need to have the education to go anywhere in life.

At times, I felt that President Obama was vague when discussing the immigration problem which brings me to another problem. The chief executive in office needs to cover every issue very similarly meaning that he/she should always balance out the time he spends discussing the topic. Also, the president needs to talk about the specifics of the policies and bills that he/she wishes to propose to Congress.

Sorry I couldn't write more, analyzing an hour long speech is not what I had in mind. Honestly, I believe that things about America really need to change for this century, due to a huge difference between our culture and the culture a while back. It's funny because I moved from a conservative view of government to undecided. As long as we are a "free" nation, you're not doing THAT bad of a job as president.
