"We've brought 24 cases (vs China), and we've won every one." United Steel Workers love Obama.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/45755822/vp/46245753#46245958

Big Ed and United Steel Worker President Leo Gerard discuss unfair trade practices being practiced by China, and the threat to American workers in the auto parts industry. Gerard is more than a little appreciative of President Obama's past support for American workers and tells a great story.

Mr. Gerard is confident the President will continue his support the American workers in this next big case.

This clip deserves wider play.

Runs 5:09.
