Very interesting indeed. At some point I'd like to know what actual policy or policies ever came out of a STOTU speech. Obama's health care perhaps? I did not watch one minute of it.
Interesting— #11 on linguistic complexity really struck me. It seems the SOTU used to be communication from the President to Congress, but now the main audience is the public. Is that what you’re seeing? What are the implications of that shift?
