Pres. Barack Obama's Next Move History & Civil Business Politics
As he wrapped up the first State of the Union address of his second term, President Barack Obama Tuesday laid out plans for reducing the deficit, accelerating troop withdrawal from Afghanistan, increasing the minimum wage, fixing immigration, repairing roads and bridges and nudged a reluctant Congress to work together. "Now let's get this done," he said.
He offered a framework to save money in a key entitlement program. "On Medicare, I"m prepared to enact reforms that will achieve the same amount of health care savings by the beginning of the next decade as the reforms proposed by the bipartisan Simpson-Bowles commission."
He also chastised Congress for the recent debt ceiling and fiscal cliff showdowns. "The greatest nation on Earth cannot keep conducting its business by drifting from one manufactured crisis to the next. Let's agree, right here, right now, to keep the people's government open, pay our bills on time, and always uphold the full faith and credit of the United States of America."
Obama called on Congress to pass several measures to curb gun violence. "Police chiefs are asking our help to get weapons of war and massive ammunition magazines off our streets, because they are tired of being outgunned."
"The families of Newtown deserve a vote," he said. "The families of Aurora deserve a vote. The families of Oak Creek, and Tucson, and Blacksburg, and the countless other communities - they deserve a simple vote."
He concluded his remarks by highlighting several guests in the gallery who had been through challenges, including a 102-year-old Florida woman who waited hours to vote and a Wisconsin police officer who was shot 12 times during a shootout at a Sikh temple.
"We may do different jobs, and wear different uniforms, and hold different views than the pe rson beside us. But as Americans, we all share the same proud title: We are citizens," he said. Ref. CNN

Internet sensation Robby Novak, known to the masses as Kid President met Obama in his office for the first time.
QUOTE Kid President, "The self appointed voice of a generation," and President Obama finally met this week as the two shared a few moments in the Oval Office, as seen in this video.
"I think you should try to sit behind the desk so you look a little more efficient," President Obama said to 9-year-old Robby Novak, known to the masses as Kid President.
As the Kid President sat at the Resolute desk and picked up the phone, President Obama warned, "Let's make sure not to cause an international incident."
"How's school going," the president asked to which Kid President responded, "Good."
"It's going pretty good?" Obama asked. "Ok because I know you have all these other activities, so much demands on your time trying to balance being president and being in the third grade. You know? That's a lot of stuff. But you seem to be handling it pretty well."
The president sought Kid President's opinion on how he's performing as commander-in-chief, asking him "Any advice for me as just an ordinary president as opposed to kid president?"
"I have one, but it's not really advice, but it's how you're doing. You're doing awesome," Kid President said. Source 3

A new CNN/ORC International poll indicates that President Barack Obama's approval rating, now at 53%, has remained essentially unchanged even after the events of last week.
But most Americans take very seriously all three concerns that dominated the news -- Benghazi, the IRS scandal, and the subpoena of Associated Press phone records -- and most say that Republicans in Congress have not overreacted so far.
A majority of respondents say that they are dissatisfied with the way the Obama administration has handled Benghazi, and a majority finds the actions by the IRS and the Justice Department to be unacceptable.
But a majority also appears to believe the White House message on those topics.
Six in 10 say that Obama's public comments about the IRS have been completely true or mostly true and 55% say that the IRS employees who targeted conservative groups were acting on their own, not under orders from the White House.
Only 44% believe that the administration's controversial talking points on Benghazi were an attempt to intentionally mislead the public. Ref. CNN
