State of the Union

Yesterday in Obama's speech he mention how the Democrats and the Republicans had something in common and that was their dislikes of banks. he only said this because he wants it to seem like both opposing parties are on the same team. Of course all of the democrats stood up and starting applauding, this would occur many times throughout his speech. It seemed that all of the democrats applause combined was longer than Obama's speech itself. Only a few times did the republicans stand up and join their counter parts. One of the first things Obama mentioned was how his goal when he became President was to bail out the banks and that it was accomplished. Then he moved on to what must be accomplished over the next year. He talked about fixing the economy, but was more focused on the United States of America becoming the number one country in the world. That there was no reason for the US to be behind China or India and that we should be second to none. But honestly that isn't America's biggest problem. I am fine sitting in third place out of over a hundred countries. We still are better than all other countries. You don't hear about people trying to sneak into China or India. America is the only country in the world is made up of many different cultures, back rounds and languages. I think that Obama has watched Talladega Nights, because "if your not first your last", but bigger crisis than not being first in the world is what's going to happen with Conan O'Brien. That was one of America's network NBC worst decision. Obama needs to fix the economy so that us Americans are allowed to watch CoCo again and his friend the self pleasuring bear. But in all seriousness, Obama's primary goal must be the economy because once that goes up, everything else will improve along with it. I am excited and nervous to see what is going to happen in the first year of the new decade.
