``i could not be prouder of what ``we've accomplished and sometimes ``we look at the past through ``rose-colored glasses. ``it's been pretty divided in the ``past. ``there's been times where people ``beat each other with canes and ``we had things like the civil war ``so there have been times where ``it's been pretty rough, but ``there's no doubt that politics ``in washington are so much more ``divided than the american people ``are, and part of what i want to ``do in this last address is to ``remind people, you know what. ``we've got a lot of good things ``going for us, and if we can get ``our politics right, it turns out ``that we're not as divided on the ``make us out to be. ``>> i know in your speech it's ``traditional to say the state of ``the union is strong. ``when it comes to the emotional ``state of our union and when i go ``out and talk to people the words ``i hear them most often in terms ``now. ``>> right. ``>> they talk about fear. ``they talk about frustration. ``they talk about fatigue.
7:09 am
``>> right. ``>> any of those words surprise ``you? ``>> no. ``i think, you know, we went ``through a lot over these last ``ten years. ``we went through katrina. ``we went through the iraq war. ``we went through the worst ``financial crisis in our ``lifetimes. ``we are still battling terrorism. ``people are still recovering from ``some of the economic blows that ``hit, and it is sometimes ``important for us to step back ``and take measure of how far ``we've come. ``the economy right now is doing ``better than any other economy in ``margin. ``we remain the strongest nation ``on earth by far and there are no ``existential threats facing us, ``but if we make some good choices ``now, whoever the next president ``is, whoever is controlling the

``next congress there, he's no ``reason why we shouldn't own the ``21st century. ``>> you shade there's no ``existential threat facing us. ``that fear though is still ``incredibly real. ``>> yeah. ``>> and in some ways it's driving ``the current presidential ``campaign. ``you've got a guy like donald ``trump and others who have ``recognized and identified that ``fear. ``>> right. ``>> and in some ways they are ``running on it. ``>> yeah. ``>> do you take responsibility ``for that, and the reason i ask ``it is people said after eight ``years of george w. bush in the ``white house the american people ``were hungry for your message of ``hope and change. ``>> right. ``>> so after seven years of the ``obama presidency do you feel ``you're responsible for a certain ``hunger out there for the message ``that donald trump is putting ``out? ``>> the message that donald trump ``is putting out has had adherence ``a lot of times during the course ``of our history. ``you know, talk to me if he wins, ``then we'll have a conversation ``about how responsible i feel ``about it, but i'm pretty
7:11 am
``majority of americans are ``looking for the kind of politics ``that does feed our hopes and not ``our fears, that does work ``together and doesn't try to ``divide us, that isn't looking ``for sim police tinge solutions ``and scapegoating but looks for ``us, you know, buckling down and ``figuring out how to do we make ``generation. ``>> so when you stabbed and ``deliver that state of the union ``address in no part of your mind ``or brain can you imagine donald ``trump standing up one day and ``delivering a state of the union ``address? ``>> well, i can imagine it in a ``saturday night skit. ``look, anything is possible, and ``i think, you know, we shouldn't ``be complacent. ``i think everybody's got to work ``hard. ``>> our tour ended in the oval ``office. ``i would never have guessed in a ``million years that i would step ``into the oval office, probably ``the most recognizable office in ``the world, and step in here with
7:12 am
``you and say this. ``what did you make of sean penn ``and el chapo? ``seriously, when you saw that ``picture of him shaking hands and ``know that he spent seven hours ``interviewing him, what did you ``make that have? ``>> first of all, i want to ``compliment the mexican ``government because, you know, ``them capturing him and as we go ``through an extradition process ``potentially, he is disabled and ``that affects their ability to -- ``the mexican government's ability ``to really crack down on some of ``the terrible crimes that are ``committed by these narco ``traffickers that i think is ``important. ``now in, terms of how an ``interview like that gets set up ``and journalistic ethics, i ``figure you're probably in a ``better position to opine on ``that. ``>> last question. ``isis is such a huge concern for ``people. ``>> right. ``>> not only are they carrying ``attacks out in the middle east ``anymore but they are inspiring ``attacks in europe and here in ``places like san bernardino. ``i think even in philadelphia ``over the weekend.
