Show me a trade agreement in the last 40 years where America has come out on top with jobs, I will save you the time there hasn't been one. American people have been getting sold out by politicians from the start, Clinton did it to us with nafta and now this guy who I voted for twice and should be ashamed of himself for treating working people this way. He knows that this is a terrible agreement, but is pushing it despite the out cry from the people. If this continues the corporations will control the world and the corporations will get the people to fight their wars so they can make more money. It is not to late to stop this nonsense and return the country to"We the People".

his Presidency? I pray it's not a quid pro quo. Maybe Bernie can announce and lead the Call to Arms against it and get his name and message out. Has O'Malley made any statement or hints as to his position on this travesty of American labor?
