Obama outclassed the entire congress and set the bar for presidential candidates

[Renew Deal]

This is a top speech by Obama. Very powerful. Optimism works, but I think it was more than that. He hit almost every big point to some degree. He had a message on most topics. It was very well done. I think it shows just how far most presidential candidates have to go.

1. He is the Penultimate Optimist....that's his philosophy on life.....

its who he is....

[elleng]

2. He always does outclass those clowns,

and they demonstrate their clownishness every time.

3. I didn't catch all of it, but there seemed to be a much-needed edge to it.

The remarks about chasing fake scandals, winning twice, and how repubs used to be in favor on infrastructure investing.

I hope to see more of this

[onecaliberal]

4. It was incredible.

5. Rethugs are so disrepectful to the Presidnet. Such classless people screaming from the audience with

their hate.

[ballabosh]

8. What did you hear?

I must have missed it. I was too focused on the President. Did they really yell from the audience? I wouldn't doubt it.

[SummerSnow]

12. When Obama said he had no more campaigns to run , some Rethug said something disrepectful

then Obama responded to the person, Yea, cuz I won both of them " and the audience applauded and laughed.

11. I must have missed that. The one thing I did see was when he was talking about the TPP and

it was not well received. I thought that was our Democratic representatives making it known that they would not back that.

[LawDeeDah]

6. Yeh. Everyone else seems like dullards compared to him.

Can't think of anyone who can come close to his wisdom and self confidence.

[mcar]

7. The R responses are going to be even more lame

than usual. An excellent speech.

[Renew Deal]

9. They probably already know they are in trouble.

[Politicalboi]

10. "I think it shows just how far most presidential candidates have to go."

Unless you're a Republican.
