when barack obama came in, he had one that pulled back on nuclear weapons, reducing the weapons in our strategy. when donald trump came, he did when the increased of the role of nuclear weapons, gave them more military missions and he started developing new kinds of weapons, some that are called more usable weapons to be used in a conflict like this. what is joe biden going to do? what we know is very little. he's going to tweak these, may be eliminate one or two smaller weapons or change their strategy a little bit, but nothing like what we need to get back to the policies of ronald reagan, for example, where we said we must eliminate these weapons from the face of the earth. now in the face of this war, you hear many politicians on capitol hill saying we need more nuclear weapons. we need to spend more on the military, even though we are spending more in the military than we have since world war ii. this is our highest pentagon budget ever, last year, and it might go up. when americans feel threatened, they attended by guns individually and collectively. we are seeing that push now a

you can also look at barack obama's first state of the union speech, obama is speaking at that moment into his presidency -- a year into his presidency. one of the lines we expect to hear is the president to say that the state of union is strong. there are many moments in which it is not strong and obama is explicit about that in 2010. he acknowledges the pain and the hardship that has been experienced by millions of americans and towards the end of the speech he calls on congress and the public to strengthen again the state of our union. depending on the crisis, the president utilizes their particular political and ideological ends. they seek to address the crisis and make sense of it for us, even when making sense of it for us will also serve their political agenda. >> one of the things that you focus on in teaching rhetoric and political culture is time and place. what does that bring to presidential rhetoric? >> in the context of the state of the union, i would stress yet again you have mentioned the mediated aspect of these state of the union addresses. this beginning with harry

you can also look, for example, at barack obama's first date as the union speech in 2010, and obama is speaking at that moment a year into his presidency, and in the midst of the great recession. one of the lines that we often hear or expected here is the president to tells the state of the union is strong. we can be honest there are many moments in which it's not strong, and obama is pretty explicit about that in 2010. he acknowledges the pain and hardship and the suffering that has been experienced by millions of americans, and towards the end of hisis speech he calls on congress and the public to strengthen against the state of our union. so depending on the crisis in the moment, presidents will utilize it for the particular political ad ideological ends. but they will seek to address that crisis and to make sense of it for us, even when making sense of it for us will also serve their political agenda. >> host: professor prasch, one of the things that you focus on in teaching rhetoric and political culture is time and place. what does that bring to presidential rhetoric? >> guest: w
