US President Barack Obama speaks at the Intel Ocotillo Campus in Chandler, Arizona, on January 25, 2012. Obama kicked off a three-day five-state tour, one day after his State of Union speech. Obama wants large tax hikes on millionaires to finance a fair economy for all, a populist vision aimed at convincing crisis-weary voters he merits a second White House term. In his annual State of the Union address — which this year served as a grand kick-off of his 2012 reelection campaign, Obama played on rising anger over inequality in the wake of the 2008 economic collapse.
