After holding a Cabinet meeting at the White House Monday, President Bush gave several clues that his State of the Union address will hit on pressing international issues like nuclear pursuits in Iran and the election of the terror group Hamas to lead the Palestinian people.
During his Tuesday address, the president also will talk about health care, energy, education and the economy, with particular attention on the costs of energy and medical care for Americans. The speech comes less than a week before Bush sends his budget request for 2007 to Congress.

Bush met with his advisers Monday to discuss with them their roles in implementing the agenda he will be presenting before millions of Americans. The State of the Union address is the largest single audience for a presidential address each year.
�I'm looking forward to speaking to the country, we have a lot to be proud of, we have a lot of work to do,� Bush told reporters after the meeting. "I can't tell you how upbeat I am about our future so long as we're willing to lead. ... We recognize that we can't just sit back and hope for the best, we�ve got to lead."
