Obama to Press Centrist Agenda in His Address By JACKIE CALMES and JEFF ZELENY
WASHINGTON — President Obama will outline an agenda for “winning the future” in his State of the Union address on Tuesday night, striking a theme of national unity and renewal, as he stresses the need for both government spending in key areas and an attack on the budget deficit.
Mr. Obama previewed the themes in a video e-mailed on Saturday evening to Democratic activists who had helped in his election campaign, mostly liberals. But the video made plain that his speech would be geared more broadly toward the political center, to independent voters and business owners and executives alienated by the expansion of government and the partisan legislative fights of the past two years.
“My number one focus,” he said, “is going to be making sure that we are competitive, and we are creating jobs not just now but well into the future.”
Advisers said the president would describe five “pillars” for ensuring America’s competitiveness and economic growth: innovation, education, infrastructure, deficit reduction and reforming government.
The annual address on Tuesday, with much of the nation watching, will pull together themes suggested by Mr. Obama over the past two months as he has moved rapidly following the midterm elections to retool his presidency.

“”innovation, education, infrastructure, deficit reduction and reforming government””
He has the most important one at the end....what the heck do we care? He doesn’t intend to implement any of it anyway but it sure sounds good to the “masses.”
He should tell the public his real name, where he was born. Admit he is not a natural born citizen..born to citizen parents.
Zero’s perception of “Centrist” is still far left.
Centrist agenda, leftist implementation.
That means he's visited 45 states.
How about massive spending cuts, tax cuts, more drilling, repeal Obamacare, repeal the financial services reform, and reverse illegal immigration? I like my six better.
‘Deficit reduction’ is the only one of his I can go for—until I realize that’s just his euphemism for tax hikes!
(puke)
Sharpton has more integrity and pales in comparison on the socialist crook scale to Hussein Barka from Kenya, although they are tied on the audacity scale.
You can’t change a liberal leopard’s spots. Obama will NEVER move towards the center. He is no Bill Clinton.
I never watch or listen to Obongo Bozo — as soon as I see/hear him, I immediately click to something else.
I know that you are supposed to “know the enemy,” but since Obongo Bozo is a Kenyan born LIEberal/Socialiast/Marxist/Fascist/Muslim Bastard and a chronic liar to boot, why should I waste my time?
May I remind this audience that despite wearing a brand new shade of “moving to the center” lipstick, Obongo Bozo is still a pig?
Is it 2012 yet?
I’d just as soon he not ever come back to Floriduh.
Takes too long to disinfect the state after he leaves.
>>five “pillars”
MORE ISLAM, THANKS BOSS!
And where does a nobody community organizer cum junior senator, with no real prior experience, come by the knowledge of how to destroy a country in plain view of its citizenry without provoking riots in the streets? And how does he hypnotize a huge chuck of its population when throngs of psychologists and Madison Avenue hucksters cannot, try as they might, do the same? And how does he create a Jim Jones-style cult without isolating the membership from the rest of humanity?
IMHO, the guy is thoroughly Satanic. Is the the AC or False Prophet or perhaps the Islamic Mahdi? I certainly don't know?
That said, and however much I cannot identify him by some prophetic name...Obama is more than just a Marxist, he is more than just a Muslim Trojan Horse, he is more than just a secular messiah.
I don't have a name for what he is, but he is the greatest personification of pure evil to emerge on the public stage in my lifetime. And the scariest part of it all is...he may just be warming up.
Ubama’s “five pillars”:
innovation = old, tired, meaningless horse manure
education = pander to education mafia union thugs
infrastructure = pander to pinky-ring trade union thugs
deficit reduction = confiscate more taxes from society’s producers
reforming government = old, tired, meaningless horse manure
