Congressman Paul Hodes (D-NH) speaks to both Jay Goodman Tamboli and Ellen Ratner after the State of the Union Address. Hodes says the speech [by President Obama] was “bold, courageous, honest, and uplifting.” Hodes says Obama “is a visionary leader” and gets to the core of things, making it possible for people to understand the challenges we face. Hodes says he feels that the plan is a “comprehensive approach.” One thing is clear, Hodes says, his [Obama's] commitment to “making schools work” and the commitment to a good education system is without question. Hodes also said “hello!” to radio host George Russell and everyone listening in New Hampshire, and thanks the people of New Hampshire for electing a leader like Barack Obama. (3:25)
