I have to say, I liked it and he is still the smartest man in the room.  What was bewildering to me was the comments that followed afterwards because it clearly showed they neither heard what he was saying or understood it if they heard it.  Congress is more focused on an idea which is crippling this nation with each day, oddly enough we think terrorist do damage to the USA, just look at the damage this congress is doing... could be worse and should be criminal.  What does that say when the boss pays less taxes then those that work for him?  You can't tell me some line about it is so they can reinvest or hire more people to work because over the last few years it is clearly been shown that while companies are back to making profits (and in some cases record profits) they are neither looking to or actually hiring more.  We have had decades of cutting taxes for the rich and wealthy of this country and yet here we stood on the edge of a depression and they want me to believe that this is working?

One thing the President could do that would not just impress me but also get my vote is to start the ground work for both term limits on congress and put an end to lobbyist with regard to those who hold an elected office.  This might go a long way to cleaning things up eventually because at the current pace things will never get there.
