Last night's debate winner :The TPP by ommission

This is what the oligarchs do. Any inquiry is met with stony silence. Plus, the MIC is trying its best to get us into another war - because...PROFITS!!! - so part of the debate was about ISIS to the exclusion of all else.

But you're right. It is horrible it wasn't mentioned because it is huge.

As in a HUGE piece of crap.

Not sure if the Congressional vote is before the next Dem debate, when the review period ends. I'm afraid it's really, really soon.

But Bernie certainly can take ownership of his long history battling fast track and these T Treaties. That definitely distinguishes him from Hillary's passive, tardy, hollow opposition after the crucial fast track vote. And just by describing it in a debate educates many still unaware that it's "NAFTA on Steroids" and a massive surrender of our American sovereignty to global corporate kangaroo courts. It's a huge political issue where most of the American people polled oppose it. Even Repub voters hate it when they hear the details.

So yes, hope Bernie brings it front and center in the next debate. He's really good at responding to questions with his own framing and message instead of answering cliche MSM questions with cliche answers.

Mrs Greenspan probably with the deepest, longest antagonism to Bernie for his Congressional grilling/public humiliation of her arrogant husband. ( It's still a classic, prophetic Utube moment.) NBC really did defy all standards of moderator neutrality putting in Mrs Greenspan as moderator for this Dem debate.

BTW not a "sexist" comment to connect public, political wives to the past of their husbands. Especially when Hillary tries to slime Bernie Sanders with Commodities Futures/Derivatives Act snuck into the year end budget bill and signed by her husband as he left office. That coupled with Clinton's abolition of Glass Steagall created the perfect storm for 2008 crash.

Robert Scheer in HuffPo today is extremely informative on Hillary's wild debate deflection onto Bernie re: this disastrous piece of Clinton legislation. And Gensler is NOW her top treasury advisor. She even brags about Gensler on her team Just wow

Mr Greenspan had huge responsibility for foundation of 2008 collapse, so did Pres Clinton's Administration. Amazing to see Sanders pitted against both of their wives: one moderating with her persistent anti Saunders nastiness ("so its a tax increase, so it's a tax increase... and your comment on Pres Clinton's sex life?" ) and one going way off the factual rails, rewriting her husband's history to stick Sanders for the Wall Street capitulation of her husband's Administration's Derivatives Deregulation Act that contributed so markedly to the 2008 collapse.
