00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:07.950
My fellow Americans.
We've gathered in this sacred space

00:00:09.000 --> 00:00:15.690
a citadel of democracy
in this capital. Generation after generation Americans are

00:00:15.690 --> 00:00:25.830
debating great questions made great strife. I've done great
things. We fought for freedom expanded liberty debated

00:00:25.830 --> 00:00:34.115
totalitarianism and terror. We both the strongest freest and
most prosperous nation the world has ever known.

00:00:35.130 --> 00:00:39.575
Now is the hour
our moment of responsibility.

00:00:40.710 --> 00:00:50.280
Our tests of resolve and conscience of history itself.
It is in this moment that our character this generation is

00:00:50.280 --> 00:00:55.115
formed.
Our purpose is found. Our future is forged.

00:00:56.370 --> 00:01:03.540
Well I know this nation
will meet the test protects freedom and liberty expand fairness

00:01:03.540 --> 00:01:12.030
and opportunity. And we will save democracy as hard as those
times have been. I'm more optimistic about America today than

00:01:12.030 --> 00:01:19.080
I've been my whole life because I see the future that's within
our grasp. Because I know there's simply nothing beyond our

00:01:19.080 --> 00:01:27.540
capacity. Our capacity. We're the only nation on earth that has
always turned every crisis we faced into an opportunity. The

00:01:27.540 --> 00:01:36.150
only nation that can be defined by a single word possibilities.
So on this night on our two hundred and forty fifth year as a

00:01:36.150 --> 00:01:43.830
nation I've come to report on the state of the nation the State
of the Union. And my report is this The State of the Union is

00:01:43.830 --> 00:01:50.455
strong because you the American people are strong.
We are stronger today.

00:01:52.370 --> 00:02:02.530
We are stronger today than we were a year ago.
And we'll be stronger a year from now than we are today. This is

00:02:02.530 --> 00:02:13.075
our moment to meet and overcome the challenges of our time. And
we will as one people one America the United States of America.

00:02:13.990 --> 00:02:14.895
God bless you all.
