Good wednesday morning. Breaking news from the persian gulf. Ten sailors detained by the Iranian Revolutionary guard have been freed. They were on a Training Mission in two small boats yesterday. Then one of their vessels became disabled and drifted into iranian waters. The revolutionary guard apprehended them. Some tense hours followed. A top iranian Navy Official said their investigation had determined that the American Ship had encountered mechanical trouble and this morning u. S. Officials apologized for the incident and the sailors are no longer detained. Freed just moments ago. There is also breaking news overnight in the crisis with north korea. The south has just fired shots at a north korean drone that crossed the border. Tension has been high since last week when the north claimed it had tested a hydrogen bomb. President obama did not mention the u. S. Sailors or north korea during last nights state of the Union Address, but he did vow that protecting the American People and going after terrorist networks is priority number one. In his final address in the state of the union to congress, he also warned that america cannot move forward until we fix our politics. Abcs Stephanie Ramos has new reaction to the speech from washington, d. C. She joins us now. Stephanie, good morning. Reporter kendis and reena, good morning to you. The past, future, isis and election 2016 dominated the state of the Union Address last night with president obama speaking more to viewers at home rather than the lawmakers before him. The president of the United States. [ cheers and applause ] reporter this was it. President obamas last state of the Union Address before congress and the nation. Kicking off the speech acknowledging the 2016 election and tthe horse race in the early primary states. And for this final one, im going to try to make it a little shorter. [ cheers and applause ] i know some of you are antsy to get back to iowa. [ laughter ] reporter president ial hopefuls marco rubio and Bernie Sanders sitting in the chamber. Without mentioning republican candidates by name, the president took them on. How can we make our politics reflect whats best in us and not whats worse . [ applause ] reporter but also made a plea for unity. I hope we can Work Together this year on some bipartisan priorities like criminal justice reform. Reporter and highlighted past successes and the future. The future we want, all of us want, opportunity and security for our families, a rising standard of living, a sustainable, peaceful planet for our kids. All that is within our reach. Reporter but republicans challenged the president starting with the gop response from south carolinas governor nikki haley. The president s record has often fallen far short of his soaring words. Reporter haley even taking a swing at donald trump. It can be tempting to follow the siren call of the angriest voices. Reporter today, president obama will kick off his poststate of the union tour making stops in nebraska and louisiana. Kendis and reena, back to you. And we also know that the president announced what he called a new moon shot at curing cancer. Stephanie, what can you tell us about that . Reporter its similar to when Americans First stepped foot on the moon. President obama essentially saying if that was possible, its possible to find a cure for cancer, so president obama says hes putting Vice President joe biden in charge of carrying out the moon shot to cure cancer that biden called for following his sons death. Biden has vowed to spend his next 15 months in office fighting for increased funding for research and development, and he says this is a personal issue after the loss of his son, beau, to brain cancer, which is why president obama says joe is now in charge of mission control. Back to you. And the president did keep it short, roughly 58 minutes there. Stephanie, thanks. Well, most of the president ial candidates were live tweeting during president obamas final state of the Union Address. The reactions fell predictably along party lines. Hillary clinton congratulated the president on expanding Health Care Coverage vowing not to put their health care into the hands of republicans. Jeb bush pointed out that middle class income has declined 2,000 under president obama. And then there was donald trump. Simply said the speech is really boring, slow, lethargic, very hard to watch.

It comes as she releases her new ad spotlighting her commitment with standing with president obama and fighting the gun lobby. Those ads will go full steam ahead today in iowa and New Hampshire and nationally, as well, on cable. In the meantime, in the gop race, texas senator ted cruz faced protesters in New Hampshire who managed to get all the way on stage. He also came under fresh attack from donald trump who circulated an oped from a top harvard law professor saying, there are real questions about whether cruz is a natural born citizen.
