No, the president does not have to deliver the State of the Union Address in person. However, it has been a longstanding tradition for presidents to do so, as it allows them to directly address the American public and outline their agenda for the coming year. In recent history, the State of the Union address has typically been delivered in person before a joint session of Congress.

no

For many years it was delivered to Congress in writing. I think it was Woodrow Wilson who revived the practice of delivering the State of the Union address in person.

Did Obama say lmfao in the union state address speech?

He did not. First, I think you are referring to the "State of the Union" address. This is a formal speech, and every president must deliver one to congress. There is no evidence that President Obama ever used internet slang like 'lmao" or the more vulgar "lmfao" during such a major speech as the State of the Union address. Further, the transcripts of his State of the Union speeches do not show that he ever said this.
