I saw that same Obama tell people in Ohio that NAFTA and Free Trade were to blame for them losing their manufacturing jobs (even though job/industry "rotation" has been happening since the advent of capitalism)... he promised them he would restructure or eliminate NAFTA (even though the manufacturing jobs are going to China)... what he DIDN'T tell those pople in Ohio is that the elimination of free trade programs such as NAFTA would result in food prices moving upwards 200-300 percent very quickly (some economists argue it would be almost instant).... Obama loves to put the "worker hat" on people but refuses to put the "consumer hat" on people... what does that remind you of? I guess I'm just surprised that this Country went toe to toe with communism for roughly 50 years, and now we seem more than willing to open the front door of the white house to them.
