The State of the Union address is always a reminder of how unique America is.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The entire purpose of the State of the Union Address is for the president to outline where we stand as a nation.
To me, the real 'state of the union' is found in how Americans react to current events.
The Union next to our liberties the most dear. May we all remember that it can only be preserved by respecting the rights of the States, and distributing equally the benefits and burdens of the Union.
While I have some regrets that this is my last opportunity to deliver a State of the State address, I appreciate and am humbled by the opportunities this great state has given me.
I think that every state in the union should recognize same-sex marriage.
The heart of the People, North and South, is for the Union.
Like every American, I will never forget where I was on the morning of September 11, 2001. As a member of Congress from Indiana, that day my duties took me to Capitol Hill and to sights and sounds I will never forget.
I am in favor of admitting any territory into the Union of States as soon as it has fulfilled the requirements of the Constitution and shall petition for admission.
I am proud to be an American, proud to represent 600,000 Americans, and proud to be in the only party pledged to make the District of Columbia the 51st state.
How many State of the Union addresses do people remember? They don't resonate that way.
