2013 SOTU Prediction Review

The five topics I predicted Obama would discuss at this year's SOTU were job creation, immigration law, protecting the middle class, reducing the deficit and debt and gun control.
Obama discussed job creation and how since the recession there have been six billion new jobs created.  He also talked about a new immigration reform as well as improving lives for the middle class as they're the backbone the America.  The end of the speech was focused on gun control, which everyone was waiting for.  Obama gave a powerful message about how there will be stricter laws when it comes to buying and selling guns.
The topics of surprise involved raising minimum wage, womens rights, and cyber hacking.  These topics were the highlight of discussion for those on Twitter discussing the SOTU as they were completely unexpected.
Overall I feel I predicted well what Obama would say in his speech, though my predictions of his plans were off.  Now is the time to watch and see what the president can do.
