            Every Obama State of the Union in 6 Minutes
As President Obama gets ready to deliver his final State of the Union address, look back at every address he's given since taking office in 2009. What do his State of the Union speeches say about his legislative priorities? Over seven years, themes like the economy, gun violence and the war in Iraq make repeated appearances.
