Barack Obama - H 2014
AP ImagesOne of the most memorable moments in President Barack Obama‘s State of the Union Address on Tuesday wasn’t even supposed to happen.
During the speech, Obama delivered the line, “I have no more campaigns to run.” After his comment prompted applause and laughter from the Republicans, Obama added: “I know because I won both of them.”
This line was not in the campaign’s script and led to a boisterous response from his supporters.
