(AP) — Declaring an American economic resurgence, Presi- dent Barack Obama opened a three-state swing Wednes- day aimed at claiming credit for recent growth and blunt- ing the momentum of the new Republican congressio- nal leadership. “We are entering into the - dence that America is com- ing back,” Obama declared at a Ford plant in Michigan, a state at the center of both the downturn and rejuvena- tion of the U.S. automobile industry.

In an effort to counter- act the veto threats with new ideas, the White House plans to use the coming weeks to outline proposals the president will discuss in his Jan. 20 State of the Union address. The ap- proach marks a shift from the White House’s usual strategy of staying mum about new proposals until the annual address to a joint session of Congress. “I thought I’d get started this week,” Obama said. “I The president said his State of the Union address would focus on what steps the country needs to take - economic gains.
