President Obama's legacy message mixes with 2016 politics

In his final State of the Union address, President Obama punched back at the notion -- popular on the campaign trail -- that America is in trouble. Political director Lisa Desjardins takes a look at how the candidates have responded, while Judy Woodruff talks to James Pindell of The Boston Globe, O. Kay Henderson of Radio Iowa and Andy Shain of The State for an update on how voters see the race.
