crucial to U.S. goals. But development is often oddly missing in the U.S. political debate.

State of the Union Bingo 2007 – Tracking Word Usage
Some development issues have sometimes been prominent in President Bush’s State of
the Union addresses—malaria, HIV/AIDS and trade, for example. But a quick analysis of
past speeches suggests that none has been a recurrent theme. And some important
issues—global warming, for example—have yet to make an appearance. The chart below
shows the number of mentions of selected terms from the State of the Union CGD Bingo
cards for past addresses. After the speech, count the hash marks for the selected terms on
the reverse of this page and update the charts. Anything new?
