Obama Removes TPP?s Anti-Slavery Clause, Then Attacks Confederate Flag As ?Symbol Of Slavery?
 

Right before he publicly attacked the Confederate Flag as a “symbol of slavery,” President Obama quietly removed an “anti-slavery” provision from the Trans-Pacific Partnership Trade Agreement.

“The provision, which bars countries that engage in slavery from being part of major trade deals with the U.S., was written by Sen. Bob Menendez (D-N.J.),” The Huffington Post reported. “At the insistence of the White House, Menendez agreed to modify his language to say that as long as a country is taking ‘concrete’ steps toward reducing human trafficking and forced labor, it can be part of a trade deal.”

“Under the original language, the country that would be excluded from the pending Trans-Pacific Partnership pact is Malaysia.”

“Why, in the year 2015, is the White House teaming up with Republican leaders essentially to defend the practice of slavery?” The Huffington Post added.

They forget to mention South Korea still has a slave class working on farms and in factories.
They've had a slave class for centuries but I guess its hush hush or they are not a part of TISA/TPP.

I was just reading about slavery in Thailand this morning.. So sad. I don't understand why global pressures don't put an end to this.

That's pretty much been the tone of his entire presidency.

If any other President had done as many bad things as he has done...they would have been impeached (just imagine Pres. Nixon with the NSA scandal or the IRS scandal...or doing something like this)
