you got people working incredibly long hours. median family income today -- $4,000 less than it was in 1999. the bottom line of this economy is that it is rigged. what this campaign is about is to demand that we create an economy that works for all of us rather than a handful of billionaires. if you work 40 hours a week in america, you should not live in poverty. i'm bernie sanders,

it's been a historic presidency for mr. obama. his first address to congress, his final address on the state of the union. tonight we're looking back at this president's evolution. here's abc's terry moran. >> the president of the united states. >> reporter: for the last time barack obama heard that famous shouted announcement as he strode into the house chamber to give his state of the union address. it's startling now to think back. i first met the then senator obama in cleveland all of the way back in 2006. back then, they were naming babies after him in iowa.

>> this is baby barack right here. >> and right now you're on a roll. obama mania, they call it. the rock star. >> this has been an interesting ride, 2 1/2 years ago nobody knew my name. >> reporter: then came 2008, a long shot first term senator challenging the clinton machine. the campaign became a mass movement. a wave of hope. >> what's the one thing in your life that you think prepares you best for that moment? >> in difficult or stressful moments, i don't get rattled. >> reporter: and obama himself turned out to be a highly polarizing president. polls show he's never become either hugely popular like ronald reagan or bill clinton, or hugely unpopular like jimmy carter or george w. bush. his favorability hovers under 50%. his presidency a time of turmoil and division and bitter angry politics.

and hoped when he burst on to the scene with a speech that ignited the 2004 democratic convention. >> we are one people, all of us plenling allegiance to the stars and stripes. all of us defending the united states of america. >> reporter: after tonight, no more of these presidential moments are left to him. america has come to know this couple, this historic first family, and watched as their girls grew up and watched as their dad grew gray. >> thank you. god bless you. god bless the united states of america. >> reporter: for "nightline," i'm terry moran. >> on this night of politics we're reminded of the words of one of our former presidents, there's nothing wrong with america that cannot be cured by what is right with america. thank you for watching. tune in to "good morning america" first thing in the morning. as always, online 24/7, "nightline" facebook page and on abcnews.com.
