President Obama did not circumvent his own party. This isn't over.

The Senate voted 60-37 Tuesday (click here) to advance President Obama's trade agenda — setting up a big victory for the White House and a painful loss for labor unions.

This latest Senate vote clears away procedural hurdles for legislation granting Trade Promotion Authority (TPA) to Obama. That power allows the president to negotiate trade pacts and then put them on a so-called fast track through Congress. With TPA in place, Congress would take a simple yes-or-no vote on any trade deal, with no room for amendments....

It may be that President Obama may never see these trade laws during his presidency.

There is no animosity. That would be childish to expect Americans to feel betrayed by their President. It has no base in reality.

This is about the American worker. No one is going to abandon the Middle Class. Absolutely no one. The American worker has a voice and it is long overdue in being heard. The assault on the American worker under the Bush White House is horrific.

Senator Warren's message has profound and far reaching implications. None of these dynamics are going to disappear. The time of "Wall Street" ownership of Congress is over.

Let's put it this way, if these trade 'ideas' weren't left over from Bush it wouldn't be an issue.

This is ridiculous. The trade deals are even named after oceans. The ideology and American victimization is all too obvious. This isn't about good trade, this is about cheap labor and the American worker. These trade so called deals, is about the USA, not anyone else. Not China. Not anyone else. China is not even a participant. China has new a INFRASTRUCTURE bank. I think it's infrastructure. I'll be darn. That means China is assaulting the USA? 

Not. China is building a better quality of life for it's people. The USA is suppose to assault that? No. We are proud to have been a part of China's renaissance. It has been good thing and we look forward to greater demand for American products in China with it's burgeoning Middle Class. For the first time in history China and the USA are going to be able to proudly say they have vibrant Middle Classes. China is no longer part of the BRIC countries. It is fastly becoming a global economy with a powerful Middle Class. That doesn't mean the American Middle Class is now up for grabs. What is China going to do if the American Middle Class disappears?

Yeah, it is an infrastructure bank. The USA doesn't have an infrastructure bank.The USA doesn't have an infrastructure bank because the Republicans didn't vote for the American Jobs Act.

Russia anticipates (click here) becoming a key manager of China’s proposed Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank (AIIB), a Moscow representative said in Beijing Saturday. China’s alternative to the Asian Development Bank, International Monetary Fund and World Bank would seek to finance much-needed Asian infrastructure projects, an effort Japan and the U.S. both view as a challenge to their influence in the region....

China has built cranes at ports around the entire world to bring their export economy to the forefront of a global economy. This is not about China. China is a favorite political speak. China already has secured it's economy. This is about the American Worker and it's Middle Class.
