State of the Union

One thing that I found very interesting about the President Obama's State of the Union address is the way he seemed to challenge America. If there is one thing that America loves most of all, it would be the spirit of competition. Our TV's are full game shows and reality shows in which we love to watch people compete against each other. In his speech, the President urged America to bring that spirit of competition into the real world, he proposed us to out build and out educate countries like China that seem to be coming to the forefront of the world stage. I thought this was a very interesting and wise strategy that will hopefully bring on a new sense of American pride.
