Obama
President Barack Obama is becoming more aware of his legacy as he enters the twilight of his presidency. Reuters

With all eyes on the country’s capitol Tuesday, Washington’s local watering holes will be filled with DC staffers, political wonks and interns gathering to watch U.S. President Barack Obama give his annual State of the Union address. Among other things, the president is expected to reveal his plan for overhauling the country’s tax system, which will include raising taxes on capital gains and slapping new fees on institutions that borrow heavily.

The president’s biggest talking point will almost certainly be the economy, but he is also expected to reveal his plan for free community college for some students and to address U.S. airstrikes against ISIS, also known as the Islamic State militant group. He will also touch on immigration reform, which Obama took action on last year with a series of executive orders aimed at keeping some immigrant families from being deported.

The SOTU is scheduled for 9 p.m. EST. Here are five places to catch the address in the capitol. And for the best SOTU drinking games, click here.
