President Obama’s speech on Thursday was designed to introduce a symbolic redefinition of American policy in the Middle East. Assuring his international audience that an ever-changing world demands continued leadership, his words ushered in a new chapter of American diplomacy.

Trade, global economic competition, job growth, the Federal deficit, spending cuts, taxes, infrastructure investments and technology innovation were the focus of President Obama’s annual State of the Union address to a newly divided Congress last night.
