State of the Union: What Do You Care About?

President Barack Obama promises his State of the Union speech Tuesday will outline a lasting economic recovery and an overhaul of tax reform and other "common sense" solutions he'll offer on the American economy and growing deficit.

Obama will also discuss what he's deemed the "Buffett Rule." It's a notion that Warren Buffett and those with similar incomes should not be paying a lower tax rate than their staff, according to a Los Angeles Times article.

On what issues do you want the president to focus when he addresses the nation?

In a video preview sent to supporters Saturday, Obama said his election-year speech will be an economic blueprint built around manufacturing, energy, education and American values. 

He is also expected to announce ideas to make college more affordable and address the lingering housing crisis, according to an Associated Press report.

The morning after the State of the Union, Obama will take his message on a three-day trip around the country.
