I posted this pic on FB and was quickly admonished by a liberal friend that berry is far short of besting several other POTUS counts.
BUT, I don't think the current POTUS's vision to go around Congress is or was part of prior SOTU addresses??
Additionally he has only served 5 yrs, so the numbers would need to be time-line skewed..
