President Obama's Final State Of The Union (Tom Ashbrook, On Point)

There was the President, appealing to the better angels of our nature in his last State of the Union address. To an America clear-eyed, big-hearted, optimistic and strong. And there was the divided chamber before him, half cheering, half largely silent. Weighing the soaring language of the outgoing leader before them, and how it lands on the ears of the country that will decide the next presidency. This hour On Point, history, politics, reality – and President Obama’s last State of the Union address. — Tom Ashbrook
