Bill Clinton gave the longest state of the union speeches. His 1995 address with 9190 words was the longest in number of words. His 2000 address was the longest in time, at one hour and 50 minutes but had "only: 7452 words.

Jimmy Carter produced the longest state of the union message, with 33,657 words, but he sent it Congress in written form rather that as a speech.

Bill Clinton gave two record-breaking state of the union addresses- one of them broke the record for number of words and the other broke the time duration record. Presidents give a lot of speeches but it seems unlikely that anybody beat Clinton in this regard. Wm. H. Harrison gave a long inaugural address but it was not as long as the aforementioned Clinton speeches.
