In the United States Constitution, it says the following: "[The President] shall from time to time give to the Congress Information on the State of the Union, and recommend to their Consideration such Measures as he shall judge necessary and expedient...." Article II, Sec. 3. I found this information on the website: http://www.gpoaccess.gov/. The State of the Union Address is an address directed to Congress about issues in the nation and how the President plans on handling these issues, but also, lets the President of the United States outline his step-by-step agenda on what he is planning to do for the nation to Congress.
Barack Obama gave his first State of the Union address on January 25, 2010. For this blog, I used Google Search to help me locate information on the State of the Union Address and this is what I found. Within my Google Search I found several websites with reliable information that would help me with this blog. The answer for the question above: "What is the State of the Union Address," came from Google Search and the websites: http://www.gpoacces.gov/, and http://www.guardian.co.uk/. I feel like I got the best answer for the question that I asked, because the websites had all of the information that I was looking for. Between the two websites various answers for my question ranged from the article that the State of the Union Address was mentioned in the United States Constitution, to when Barack Obama delivered his first State of the Union Address.
